Minnesota Wild General Discussion 2024-25

[Digitalbooya]

Just in time for a Jets player to try and sit on him Monday night.

That's why Trenin gets the big bucks

His time to shine!

His time to shine!

I'm gonna have a chuckle if Foligno and Trenin get almost 8M for 32 points and Rossi gets traded for 70 points

NOT FUNNY!

The most impressive thing about Rossis numbers is that he is doing this without PP1 time. Most points come from ES.

He'd probably be a PPG-Player if he would play on the PP1 too.

It's an impressive improvement compared to last seasons 40-point rookie campaign.

 

[MrRuin]

The blue line stat line looks pretty good if you ask me. If they can keep that pace throughout the top 4 that will go a long way in getting this team into the playoffs and maybe survive the first round.

Gaudreau has 2 fewer even strength points than Rossi and he doesn’t get to play with Kaprizov.

Gaudreau has 2 fewer even strength points than Rossi and he doesn’t get to play with Kaprizov.

That's because he is well rested after taking last year off.

 

[MrRuin]

I mean…nothing wrong with being impressed with them both tbh. Good for the team.

Nice to see that a healthy Gaudreau with Foligno/Trenin is equivalent to Rossi being propped up by Kaprizov.

Gaudreau is definitely on a nice run. Both of them are trouncing Eriksson Ek which should probably be getting more attention.

Does this mean Freddie is off the whipping boy list?

That's a big 10-4.

 

[Circulartheory]

Does this mean Freddie is off the whipping boy list?

Trenin has that spot now.

Are Yurov and Buium going to be impact players next year? Are we an actual threat to win a playoff round this year? Do we need to go all in this year to convince Kap to stay?

So many questions.

 

[AKL]

Are Yurov and Buium going to be impact players next year?

I would guess somewhere between Rossi's 2023-24 season and Boldy's 2021-22 season.

Are we an actual threat to win a playoff round this year?

50/50

Do we need to go all in this year to convince Kap to stay?

Probably not "all in", but if we're not buyers at the deadline and we don't win a round, it'll be pretty hard to sign him in the summer.

Ek’s never been a big 5v5 scorer. His role is shutting down the opponent’s top line while being a net positive.

Per MoneyPuck, Foligno-Gaudreau-Trenin and Johansson-Ek-Boldy have higher xGF% than Kap-Rossi-Zucc. Foligno-Gaudreau-Trenin, Foligno-Gaudreau-Hartman, Kap-Ek-Boldy, AND Johansson-Ek-Boldy all have higher GF% than Kap-Rossi-Zucc.
