HWP 114: Leaving the City of Pominville

Last week, we bemoaned the lack of movement happening with the roster.

My, how things change in a week.

The Minnesota Wild made their big move, shipping out Marco Scandella and Jason Pominville for Tyler Ennis and Marcus Foligno. It's a big trade that we have a lot of opinions about. Listen to those.

You'll also want to hear about all of Minnesota's Free Agents, especially because you've not heard of a bunch of these guys.

So here we go.

Topics include:

• The Scandella/Pominville trade
• How that trade freed up much less cap space than most think
• Playing Captain Hindsight with a Scandella trade
• The inherent risk of Ennis
• Why Foligno might not be that bad
• Why Scandella got less value than expected
• Nino Niederreiter and Mikael Granlund filing for arbitration
• Breaking down the Wild's free agents
• Suggesting names for the remaining needs for Minnesota
• Departing Wild free agents
• Why Dallas is scary again
• Connor McDavid's $100 million deal

And more!
