Introduction: The Wild made an interesting trade Tuesday, sending center Nico Sturm to division rival Colorado for center Tyson Jost. On one hand, it was a classic "change of scenery" move with both players seeking different roles on new teams. But it also comes as the Wild has lost 12 of its last 16 games and is in need of a jolt down the stretch. You'll hear plenty from GM Bill Guerin, who still has faith in his team but clearly isn't happy with the direction this season has taken recently.
