--May 2nd, 2010 Wild GM MWG was a busy man today as he completed two seperate trades and a signing. His first move of the day was sending out Kyle Brodziak in exchange for Chris Campoli. Wild GM MWG had this to say about Campoli, "Chris is a good defensemen that just needs a change of scenery, we don't like having to send Brodziak away, but we know that he will continue to do well in Ottawa. Chris will help us shore up our blueline and give us some depth there." In the second trade of the day, MWG sent Tyler Cuma and Marco Scandella off for the 5th overall pick in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft. MWG had this to say, "I couldn't pass up on the chance to pick up a top-5 pick for this year's draft. We as an organization felt like we were in the need of a elite prospect." Lastly, the Wild signed Marcel Hossa, brother of Marian, to play on the top line along with Mikko Koivu. Marcel Hossa had signed with Dinamo Riga last offseason, but simply didn't want to pass up on the opportunity to play with his brother. Wild GM MWG has made various trades and Wild fans have to be getting excited about all of the movement that has been going on. It should make for an interesting draft having 11 picks in which 4 are in the 2nd round.
