ST. PAUL -- With less than one week remaining before the NHL Trade Deadline on Monday, Wild General Manager Paul Fenton is still in assess mode.
A 1-6-3 stretch since the All-Star break and bye week has left him frustrated in the results, but with the big picture still showing his club as a playoff contender, Fenton may not have a good idea of exactly what his deadline plans are until the very end.
In that regard, there's still some time to decide. The Wild finished up a four-game homestand on Tuesday against the Anaheim Ducks and has three games remaining before the deadline, with a road trip to New York and Detroit and a home game against St. Louis on Sunday.
