Minnesota Wild General Discussion 2024-25

What’s the concern level for Ohgren right now? Ideally, he would be developing in the AHL on the top line/PP/PK. Playing 11 minutes a night at the NHL level isn’t great for his development IMO. Either need to move him up the lineup or send him down to Iowa.

Playing with Gaudreau and Johansson on 2nd line doesnt really do much for him though either. Kind of a no win situation with all injuries, you dont want to send him down at this point either due to the roster we are icing

Mildly concerned. Have suspicions that he just isn't going to be vg, unless he goes through a Rossi like metamorphisis and comes back on fire next fall. right now he looks meh, but he is still yoiung, and trying to figure out how to make his mark in the league.
I don't see any major weakness in his game, such as skating, strength, or puck handling, and his shot is good when he uses it.

Don't mind ohgren getting some nhl games right now but needs a little more time. Maybe next year or the year after he forces his way onto the team.

He’s got brick hands. I’d say that is a clear weakness. Thats not to say he won’t be a player, but he definitely lacks in the puck handling department IMO
