Russo and Smith: Early extensions have given the struggling Wild precious few trade deadline chips

No way
Between these three and the Goligoski and Merrill extensions I’m starting to wonder about our boy Billy
WOAH, HOLD UP, STOP THE FUCKING TRAIN, GET THE PRESIDENT ON THE PHONE RIGHTH NOW
i just wanna know what bill was thinking, what’s the thought process to give those out.
Leopold is the problem. Hiring Fletcher and Fenton back to back, refusing to rebuild when the team clearly needed it, and now this big misstep by Guerin.
Im curious to know how much influence Leopold has over individual moves or overall direction- my guess is that it would be fairly high.
I really don’t get how no movement clauses were added to Foligno’s and Hartman’s current contracts with the extensions? More so than the extensions, the trade protection going around to basically everyone could end up costing Guerin’s job.
Calling it, after the Parise/Suter payments end, we are in for another rousing round of buyouts! Truly genius.
REALLY??? /s
Billy G yelling at the team right now for letting him offer them those contracts.
Had to *lock in* those aging veterans before their price tags went up. /s
Makes no sense but then I didn’t like both of the buyouts, either. Sure Suter had to go but Parise might have been coachable. Could have at least gotten some value out of him.
Moose was the worst of them all. He’s going to be completely useless by the end of the deal.
