Justin Jefferson Turns Heads With New Fashion Move After Refusing to Ditch JJ McCarthy & Vikings

Justin Jefferson once told J.J. McCarthy, “Confidence is key in this league.” But it wasn’t just a statement. For Jefferson, it’s almost like his ‘nindo’, his ninja way. Debates are still going strong over whether the Vikings will keep their starting QB from 2024, Sam Darnold, or give J.J.

Can Justin Brazeau Become the Player He Was Earlier This Season? – Minnesota Wild

On March 6, the Minnesota Wild traded Marat Khusnutdinov, Jakub Lauko, and a 2026 sixth-round pick for Boston Bruins forward Justin Brazeau.

Does Justin Brazeau Have the Skill To Adapt To Hynes’ Systems? – Minnesota Wild

The narrative around Justin Brazeau has shifted quickly since the Minnesota Wild acquired him on March 6.

The Justin Brazeau Trade Was A Step In the Wrong Direction – Minnesota Wild

It was always going to be easy to dunk on the Minnesota Wild at the trade deadline. Short of putting big-money players like Kirill Kaprizov and Joel Eriksson Ek on LTIR, they simply didn’t have the flexibility to grab a big fish like Mikko Rantanen or Brock Nelson or Brock Boeser. They couldn’t get a… Continue reading The Justin Brazeau Trade Was A Step In the Wrong Direction – Minnesota Wild
