The Minnesota Wild did it - they bought out both Zach Parise and Ryan Suter. Nine years after signing them to 13-year, $98 million deals, they ended the Era. There's plenty of time to reminisce later, but Joe and Tony break down a shocking day, discussing:

• Wow, holy crap, they actually did this
• Why buying out Suter was such a shock
• Would we have bought out Suter?
• The prospects gotta step up now
• Minnesota suddenly has more Matt Dumba leverage
• Will the Wild throw away their strong defensive core?
• The two Alternate Captain vacancies - who gets the As?
• Darren Dreger reports the Wild ready to make an offer on Jack Eichel
