Minnesota Wild General Discussion 2024-25

[DigitalBoldy]

He’s got a higher ES P/60 than Rossi or Boldy in the last 10 games.

False. Even strength per 60 over the last 10 games:

Rossi 1.99
Boldy 1.75
Khusnutdinov 1.64

You probably meant to say 5v5, where your statement is played out.

BUT, I would like to point out that Trenin leads the team in both ES and 5v5 per 60 over the last 10 team games. So maybe Trenin should be moved up the lineup?

I'm most excited about seeing Jiricek again.

 

[BagHead]

The real problem is that 3 points in his last 10 games nearly doubles his point total on the entire year. He's an alright 4th liner, but some AHL time might do his offensive game some good.

I think that Guerin wants Marat and Ohgren to develop their offense down in Iowa. Both have the potential to be decent middle six players, but right now it's not happening for them. They need a wake up call.

I have liked Marat's play better than Ohgren's. I like the way he plays, and think he is already a decent NHL 4th liner. Ohgren isn't bad, just ineffective, like Jost.. They are both young, so not time to panic.

It bothers me to see these guys targeted while players like Marjo and Hartman get a pass, but that's more about their contract status than their play.

Honestly, yes. He’s got more juice than Foligno and a Top 6 with Boldy, Rossi, Zucc, Mojo, Hinostroza might be the softest, easiest-to-play-against group in modern NHL history.

 

[Webster]

He wouldn't even sniff the top line on most teams. He's damn lucky to be where he is alongside Rossi and Boldy.

It's funny how Rossi is doing fine without Kap, but Zucc is lost.

Zucc is lost?
A player doesn't have to be bad just because he plays 8 games in a row without picking up a point.

The impact stats from the Avs game shows why Zucc is a leader. And who said Johansson should be out? Obviously not. Khusnutdinov on the bottom, sending him down is fine, they won't miss much. I think Brodin played hurt.

 

[MNRube]

Lot of doom and gloom here for a team with a young core that was near the top of the standings before a vicious series of injuries hit. We also have some cap space opening up and a top prospect pool. I still think we are in a good spot

Perhaps I’m missing something and should focus on trading Kevin Fiala 3 seasons ago, or Foligno being signed one year too long, or Trenin being paid $1M too much.

I'm still predicting the Wild to win a round or four if they have a healthy Kaprizov, JEE, Faber, and Rossi, with a Bus or a blooming Flower in the back.

 

[NHL1674]

And who is to blame for that?

 

[Spurgeon]

And who is to blame for that?

I thought I was fairly knowledgeable about the NHL salary cap, but I still don’t know how we got enough space to bring in Nyquist. This team was going to have <$1M space by the TDL and with players on LTIR, we shouldn’t have been accumulating cap daily.
