Default Wild seeking scoring

Quote:
The Wild are in the market for some scoring punch and have been scouting Eastern Conference teams in hopes of finding it, reports the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.
Wild GM Doug Risebrough is conducting trade talks at the GM meetings in Las Vegas, while his pro scouting staff has been scouting the Islanders and Lightning.

The Star-Tribune hints the Islanders might deal Mark Parrish, who is due to become a free agent this summer and said in December that he's interested in signing with the Wild.

The Lightning, meanwhile, has two needs the Wild conveniently could fill – a goaltender and a defenseman.

Wild goalies Manny Fernandez and Dwayne Roloson and defensemen Filip Kuba, Willie Mitchell, Andrei Zyuzin and Daniel Tjarnqvist are all free-agents-to-be and all believed to be available for trade.
According to the Star-Tribune, Tampa Bay forwards Fredrik Modin, Ruslan Fedotenko and Martin St. Louis can be had for the right price.

Lightning scout Dave Heitz has scouted several Wild games and was at Tuesday's game.

Yes, Jacques Lemaire has absolutely no idea what he's doing as an NHL head coach.

This the same man that perfected the system that brought the New Jersey Devils 3 Cups in 9 years, and got the Wild all the way to the Western Conference Final in their third year of existence.

Clearly he should be fired...

although i do agree with not having so many captains. They need to set one Captain and stick with it.

I agree about the rotatin captains-that's lame. I'd rather have them just give the C to Willie Mitchell and the A's to Rolston and Walz, but Lemaire probably isn't going to change that any time soon

However, as to the system he employs, is it sexy? Is it fun for opponents? No, it's a boring, physical, slow system. And I don't blame people for not liking it too much. However, it works, it's smart, and it's not changing anytime soon, and suggesting Lemaire be fired for it is rediculous. He's still a very good coach, even if you hate the system. I'm glad to have him, and I hope he stays for awhile.

I would like to see some more scoring punch-other than Rolston and Gabby, our scoring has been too sporadic and lifeless. PMB is slowly developing into a very capable player, and White isn't terrible, but we need more. When guys like Daigle and Dupuis are struggling like they are, it's time for some changes. However, I do NOT want to see us get rid of Kuba, Mitchell or Manny. Whatever happens, we must re-sign them, as they are immensely valuable parts of our team. We absolutely have to spend whatever is necessary to keep them.
