I would continue to push for the playoffs if I were the Wild: definitely agree that it would send a TERRIBLE message to deal away core players like Mitchell, Kuba, or Fernandez.
The Wild have the dough and good chemistry to be able to make any of their UFAs happy if they want to keep them.
Remember, if you want to attract some of the good UFAs from other teams this next off-season, you want them to believe Minnesota is in it to win, not keep building for the future. Trade away key players now, and lotsa luck getting a significant free agent to come here.
