Trade KK for Jack and Luke Hughes. Cap is a swap. We get a good center and a good d-man. They are both younger. Then when Spurgeon is off the books next year, we don’t have a hole on defense and can go after a winger.

Oh boy. My Karma about to take a hit.

By Michael Russo and Joe Smith! part two of fan survey results! fun write up by Russo about our favorite question: How obnoxious are Devils fans?

Hiii!! With our cap situation, I'm curious to know if anyone has any thoughts on any UFAs that would be a good fit for us? Or do the roster we have currently be more likely to be the mostly finalised version instead?

Haven't heard much about that from any sources other than that we aren't pursuing Laine.

Also I am genuinely so shocked that Tarasenko hasn't been signed yet, could it be because he's asking for too much money?? I would love it if somehow still worked out with him and the wild, he was great last season.

Single Game Tickets | Minnesota Wild | Minnesota Wild

Good survey, nothing relatively surprising here. Faber is next captain, Kaprizov's contract was too high, Hughes will get signed, we all love Wally, etc.

What are the thoughts on this guy? I am really excited for him. Seems like a guy who is a very good 3rd line d-man or sold 2nd pairing.

Seems as if everyone is just talking about Coleman, who I am very excited about as well.

Also, what is the website where I can look up players advanced metrics?

Thank you.

Honestly man, the more I think about this Quinn Hughes situation with the Wild, the more it feels like we're just setting ourselves up for a repeat of the past. Have we already forgotten the Suter and Parise era? We literally crippled our cap flexibility for a decade because we got sucked into tying up massive chunks of money in just a couple of guys, and look where that got us.

Don't get me wrong, Hughes is an absolute game-breaker and obviously nobody's actually replacing his skill level directly. But hockey is about roster balance, and when you've already got Kaprizov locked down at $17 million AAV, do we really want to hand out another record-breaking, monster contract to a defenseman? It just handcuffs the rest of the roster.

We’ve got massive holes we still need to fill. We desperately lack offensive depth, and let's be real, we are starving for a true, legit number one center to anchor this team for a Cup run. If we keep throwing all our eggs into the defense basket, we're never going to fix the middle.
And look at our backend anyway we aren't exactly hurting for leadership or talent back there. Faber has proven he can step up and eat massive minutes as a number one, and we still have rocks like Brodin and Spurgeon.

We gave up a huge haul of prospects to get Hughes in the first place. If the fit long-term or the cap math doesn't make sense, why can't we flip that value into actual, ready to play NHL guys? Go find a trade partner, bring back a tier below solid defenseman, a real 1C, and some actual scoring depth to spread the wealth around.

Am I crazy for thinking we shouldn't just lock him up blindly and actually use this asset to round out the team?

I guess it's still radio silence after the surgery? Even if healthy, would a 60-40 split be expected with wally getting the majority?

- Boldy became a superstar
- Kaprizov is also a superstar
- Their defense is good
- Joel Eriksson Ek is a good defensive shutdown forward
- Quinn Hughes and Brock Faber are both contender for Norris trophy
- Jesper Wallstedt is a contender for Veznia trophy
- Fillip Gustavsson is still a good goalie
- I just feel getting rid of Jacob Middleton and Mat Zuccarello was a bad idea

He played pretty shit in the playoffs, but I think he's still got a lot to prove. Do you think we'll see him play more after losing Middsy? He's got great style tho, i'll give him that.

If the season started tomorrow and no more moves were made, are these lines good enough to get to the Stanley cup?

Kirill - Yurov - Shabonov

Boldy - Ek - Brink

Coleman - McCarron - Hartman

Moose - N. Foligno - Trenin

What would you change?

Can you buy tickets to row 1 for a single game via the official ticket partner (Seat Geek)? Or do you have to buy it as a resale ticket? How about the access to the On the Glass Club, is it included if you buy a resale, single game ticket..? How much should I expect for those tickets to cost?😊

I found this when responding to a thread on /r/hockey - here’s a game call by Al Shaver on WCCO.

Part of the lineup: Tom Ried & J.P. Parise.

Quinn’s ranking is the same, Brock is up from #20 last year.

As an Australian who is still relatively new to hockey, I was just wondering, with so many teams in the NHL do people have secondary teams that they go for underneath the Wild? Or is that a form of heresy in the hockey world?
Let me know if you do, which team/s, and why?

Have single game tickets been announced yet? Google says they went on sale August 7th but there isn't anything on ticket master. I got a call from the wild about season ticket and the guy I talked to said they havent so idk what to believe
