Kaprizov Could Come Back With a Vengeance

Kirill Kaprizov spent a good amount of time last season playing through an injury. It was obvious, especially when he came back from some time off and looked more like the superstar he usually is. With a longer-than-usual time off to heal, Kaprizov should be back in top shape and ready to make a bigger […]

Joel Eriksson Ek Is Steadily Improving His Game

Joel Eriksson Ek is unequivocally the most important player on the Minnesota Wild because he can do anything they need him to do. He takes the tough faceoffs, screens the goalie well, and scores goals. He is the first over the boards for power plays, penalty kills, and overtime. And best of all, he is […]

BREAKING: Minnesota Wild Re-Sign Brock Faber

It hasn’t been a secret that the Minnesota Wild would be re-signing Minnesota native Brock Faber to a mega contract extension this summer, which is the first chance they’ve been able to as his current ELC contract doesn’t expire until after the 2024-25 season.

The First Boring Summer for the Minnesota Wild

I was just sitting here thinking about how boring this summer has been for the Minnesota Wild. Of course, the lack of an off-season contributed to that, but there was something I couldn’t quite put my finger on until today. The past three summers (at least!) have been a little bit TOO exciting surrounding the […]

Will Don Sweeney Disappoint in Free Agency?

The Boston Bruins hired General Manager Don Sweeney on May 20, 2015. Sweeney has signed 216 players, drafted 54, and made 42 trades since that time. Bruins fans would probably like to forget about some of the draft picks (especially the 1st round in 2015) and some of the trades (Kirill Kaprizov for a 5th-round […]

OPINION: I’d Pick Brock Faber Over Connor Bedard

Connor Bedard is a young, generational talent at the beginning of what will be an amazing career. I’m excited to watch him grow and develop his talent even further than where it already is. But at this moment in time, I would not trade Brock Faber for Connor Bedard. Before I dive in, I’d like […]

Can the Wild Still Salvage the Season?

Can the Minnesota Wild Make the Playoffs?

Nobody has a crystal ball and the Minnesota Wild are in a tough spot. Not high enough to guarantee a playoff spot, but not low enough to count themselves out of it. While some fans have called for them to tank for a better draft pick, battling for a playoff spot aligns more with the […]
