Hanzal Ryan White and a 2017 4th round pick were traded to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for a package of picks and a minor league by the name of Grayson Downing. (ESPN)
Fantasy Impact:
Hanzal is the key piece in this deal as Minnesota strengthened their team for a playoff run this season, where they currently lead the Western Conference. This is a move for 2017 as Hanzal is an unrestricted free agent after the season. For that matter, White can also become an unrestricted free agent after the season. Hanzal is a strong player that helps the Wild's chances in the playoffs but the impact on his fantasy value will depend on how quickly he can gel with his new teammates.
