Would you consider trading the 4th pick?

ceber, we have actually had 5 drafts...

1. Gaborik
2. Koivu
3. PM Bouchard
4. Burns
5. Thelen

that certainly doesn't put us in position to throw away top 5 picks!

What are Minn needs?

why on earth would the Wild do that trade? This pick has potential to be a team changer...an almost free agent and a 3rd rounder isn't worth it to me, sorry.

What does Minn need?

A star player, just like every other team.

I'm not sure where you're going with that.

Good point. Wonder why I was thinking four?

They say the mind is the first thing to go... I think my physique was the first, but then maybe I never had a physique and it really is my mind that's going...

Give us a few solid prospects, a first, and a later draft pick and we'll smile.

"We're not shopping it. We're as happy as can be with it," assistant general manager and chief scout Tom Thompson said Thursday.

Could be smokescreen, but I think we're just going to use the 4th to get us a very solid, top end prospect.
