Jiricek, Wallstedt Should Be Part of Wild Next Season – Wilderness Walk
Just now, Willy the poor boy said: I’m not 100% but I believe the only skater that BG has drafted that’s developed in IA. is Rossi (and he wants to get rid of him lol) so not a good track record. Sounds like all the IA. coaches are safe for another season. Uugh!! Looking at… Continue reading Jiricek, Wallstedt Should Be Part of Wild Next Season – Wilderness Walk
The Wild Should Target John Gibson As A Stopgap Goalie – Minnesota Wild
Jesper Wallstedt is destined to be the Minnesota Wild’s starting goaltender, but he’s struggling to adjust to North American hockey. He has played 110 games with the Iowa Wild in the AHL and has a 2.90 goals against average (GAA) and a 90.2% save percentage (SV%). He has also recorded 4 shutouts. It looked like… Continue reading The Wild Should Target John Gibson As A Stopgap Goalie – Minnesota Wild
The Wild Should Target David Reinbacher In A Rossi Trade – Minnesota Wild
The Minnesota Wild are officially out of cap hell. Wild fans take a deep breath. However, don’t relax too much. The Wild have cap space to work with, but will still have a roster crunch.

Should One Game Change the Wild’s Playoff Expectations? – Minnesota Wild
The Minnesota Wild got more than a shot in the arm after Kirill Kaprizov and Joel Eriksson Ek’s return on Wednesday night. The team and fans got a reprieve from three-plus months of depressingly boring hockey. From Kaprizov’s injury on December 23 until Tuesday, the Wild ranked 31st in total goals and tied for dead-last… Continue reading Should One Game Change the Wild’s Playoff Expectations? – Minnesota Wild

Should the Wild Ride Gustavsson Through the Playoffs? (Podcast) – Minnesota Wild

The Zeev Buium Era Should Start This Season – Minnesota Wild
Brock Faber set an unrealistic standard for Minnesota Wild defensive prospects. The former Golden Gopher came straight from getting to the National Championship Game to the NHL lineup for a playoff team. The smooth-skating defenseman got all of 40 minutes of regular-season warm-up time before stepping into a regular shift during the playoffs. Welcome to… Continue reading The Zeev Buium Era Should Start This Season – Minnesota Wild
Should JJ Peterka Be On Minnesota’s Radar This Offseason? – Minnesota Wild
The Minnesota Wild are only months away from being players in the marketplace. For the past four years, Bill Guerin’s front office has scraped by on cheap extensions for key players, hometown discounts, and backfilling through the minor leagues. Signing impact free agents like Jake Guentzel, Dougie Hamilton, and the late Johnny Gaudreau were never… Continue reading Should JJ Peterka Be On Minnesota’s Radar This Offseason? – Minnesota Wild
The Wild Should Go All-In On A Dylan Larkin Trade – Minnesota Wild
