Wild Land Coleman, Maatta in Blockbuster Flames Trade
Minnesota sends prospects and picks to Calgary for Coleman and Maatta in a massive win-now move.
The Minnesota Wild executed a blockbuster trade with the Calgary Flames, landing forwards Blake Coleman and defenseman Olli Maatta in exchange for a package of prospects and draft picks. The move caps a busy week for Minnesota’s front office, which also re-signed key free agents to solidify its roster ahead of the season. The Wild now boast a deeper forward corps and more veteran stability on defense, a clear signal of a win-now push under head coach John Hynes.
