Minnesota Wild General Discussion 2024-25

[Webster]

Of course he screwed up Rossi's postgame show...

So Zucc is sick (flu symptoms), questionable for tomorrow. Same with Gaudreau.

Spurgeon to IR. Kaprizov still day to day.

Lambos, Boyd and Gaunce recalled.

So what does this mean

So what does this mean

 

[Sweetnut]

MAF retiring, Wallstedt the backup and Ferguson to Iowa?

 

[MrRuin]

Wallstedt is hurt per Russo on Bluesky so they added additional insurance for the NHL team by upgrading the contract

So we're capable of winning even without Kap, Spurgs, Faber and Gus (was pulled last game).

So either we're incredibly lucky or this team is actually not as bad as some thought. Even I used to say that this team was carried by Gus & Kap. Maybe that statement isn't so true at all?

It was the blues , relax. Let me know when we win a game against the jets or knights or Avs even when we’re healthy.

We got lucky last night.

But, we now have two legit Cs for first time. And we have a lot of good defensive forwards in Foligno, Ek, Rossi, Gaudreau, Marat, Boldy, Trenin.

People underestimated the impact Faber would have. We sucked last year but basically added a 1D. Now Spurgeon is properly placed and we have a Top 5 blueline. A bounceback year was obviously coming, provided we got decent goaltending, which we have.

Yeah. We are bad against the good teams in the Central.

 

[north21]

Yeah. We are bad against the good teams in the Central.

We are just saving ourselves for the playoffs.

 

[BagHead]

Yeah. We are bad against the good teams in the Central.

So far.

Record against Avs and above is currently 1-3-1
1-1-0 against the Stars
0-2-1 against the Jets
0-0-0 against the Avs

There are a couple games against the Avs coming up, so we'll see so how the Wild do against them. The record is far from irredeemable yet.

Their record against teams currently in playoff position as of today is a very respectable 12-8-1.
They need to be able to beat the best teams in their division, but this body of work shows they at least have the ability to play to that level.

We are just saving ourselves for the playoffs.

I really like our chances if we could skip rounds 1-3 to face an Eastern team.
