What could Wild get for Gustavsson? Will they trade Rossi? Mailbag, part 1 — trades, free agency and contracts

Trading Rossi seems so risky to me.
This is bleak. BG apparently wants to get bigger but older/slower/less skilled.
Trade Rossi, sign Perron and extend Middleton would do exactly that.
Trading Rossi doesn’t make sense to me. Hell, trading him for Cutter Gauthier would’ve been brutal IMO.
This is baffling:
> If the Wild could trade Rossi for the same level of high-end prospect, but one who’s bigger and faster, there’s a real chance they’d pull the trigger.
So, a similar prospect that is bigger and faster? Who wouldn’t make that kind of trade? Why would another team make that trade?
I don’t know too many GMs out there thinking “boy, we need to get smaller and slower”.
