I'd make that trade in a nanosecond.....I doubt the wild would though.

Higgins, unknown potential but great speed and two way play. A Minnesota pick for a conditional #1. Go for it. When does Gaborik become a UFA? |

Pretty sure Eklund got this from Pednault, and the conditional first was going Minnesota's way.
At least, that's what my brain tells me makes sense.
Gaborik is UFA in July, HFLA.

Unfortunately, the source makes this gossip moot.

Can we put an end to this for a while? Gaborik placed on injured reserve Minnesota Wild star Marian Gaborik was placed on injured reserve because of an unspecified lower-body injury that has kept him out of four straight games.
Fellow forward Owen Nolan was activated from IR on Saturday before the Wild faced Columbus. He missed the previous three games because of a leg injury.
Players on injured reserve don't count against the active roster limit of 23 and must remain on the list for seven days. Moves are made retroactively, though, so because Gaborik has not played since Oct. 14, he could come off IR at any time.
Gaborik has battled a variety of ailments to leg muscles throughout his career in Minnesota. He's in the final year of his contract, and negotiations are at an impasse. |

Gaborik for Kovalev?
Going by stats and age, I'd do it in a minute.
Gabby has a bad rep and I don't know if it's justified, but where there is smoke??

Kovalev's an even less desirable asset, who's also a UFA at season's end, and doesn't help Minnesota in the present or future. You'd do it because it's unabashedly in Montreal's favour. |

Glad to hear. Any deal for Gaborik was bound to be a huge disaster IMO. |
