Minnesota Wild General Discussion 2024-25

[Wabit]

Obviously we don't know right now how other rosters are going to fully shake out, but how would you all rank the Central teams next season?

Not in any order, jut the tiers.

Top-3: (Playoffs)
DAL
COL
NSH

Mushy middle: (could be WC or could be a bottom feeder)
WIN
UT
MN

Bottom:
CHI (they'll be better than last year)

I have no clue where to put STL. I just don't care enough to pay attention to them.

I still think the West is top heavy and the WC is wide open.

Happy Anniversary!!!!

It's time to start discussing the elephant in the room. Now that we're down to their final season here, how badly will Guerin mess up their extensions? Has he contacted their agents yet?!

 

[Sweetnut]

Guerin wouldn't dare move one of his guys. We gotta keep the grit! Why move Gaudreau when you can move a Gus or Rossi? Besides, moving Gaudreau would be admitting that he made a mistake with that contract, and his ego wouldn't be able to handle it.

And, with the help of Odin, Freddy may actually score 6 goals next season!

 

[Sweetnut]

Not sure it's that far off either. Pastrnak got 11.25, Nylander got 11.5.

Pettersson just got 11.6 as a center, MacKinnon just got 12.6 as the second best player in the world (and a center).

Think market value for a player like Kaprizov should be between 11 and 12. But we'll see what Marner gets, that could change things a little.
