An NHL insider just revealed what the Boston Bruins are going to have to pay to acquire a Minnesota Wild star player.
There has been a lot of rumours surrounding Minnesota Wild's young star player Marco Rossi entering the off-season, and it seems like he is going to get traded by the team this off-season.
The Boston Bruins have been a team that has been linked to the Wilds star player, especially considering he is a center which is something the Boston Bruins are desperately looking for.
What the Boston Bruins have to pay
According to David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period, the Boston Bruins would have to pay Rossi a seven-year, $7 million contract if they wanted to acquire him as he is looking for a deal similar to Matt Boldy.
Further to Anthony's reporting here, I'm hearing Rossi's camp is looking for a similar deal to Matt Boldy. All indications are he's asking for something in the 7x7 range.
To further this more, according to Anthony Di Marco of the Daily Faceoff, the Wild are looking for a top prospect along with a first round pick for Rossi.
Meaning they would more then likely have to give up Fabian Lysell to acquire Rossi.
Re. Marco Rossi: I don't think there is a fit w/ PHI at this time. Speaking with sources, the #MNWild would want Tyson Foerster or one of PHI's late 1sts; PHI has no interest in either.
Rossi's contract demands are said to be "too much" for either team.

It would make sense for the Bruins to move on from Lysell if that's what it would take to acquire Rossi, considering Rossi has already proved himself in the NHL unlike Lysell.
Rossi in just his second full year in the NHL ended up scoring 24 goals, and 36 assists for 60 points for the Wild this year.
