There is no doubt that if Dylan Larkin had asked out of the Detroit Red Wings organization last summer, the Minnesota Wild would have had the ability to pull off a deal for the 30-goal-scoring center. Marco Rossi would have fit the bill as a young, proven center who could fill the Larkin void. A swe...
With the 2026 NHL Draft behind us, let's take a look back at some of the greatest selections in NHL history. In this piece, we will name the greatest draft pick of all time from each of the 32 NHL teams. However, to make this a bit more difficult, we will only include names who […]
The Minnesota Wild have been negotiating with Detroit Red Wings GM Steve Yzerman all offseason for Dylan Larkin, but not anymore...
Another hot July day in Minnesota, another day with minimal NHL news. The trade rumors continue to spin and will until there’s more news to share. In the meantime, we’ll…
Don't worry, the Minnesota Wild are still trying to get Dylan Larkin. While a trade has not happened yet and everything is extremely quiet around the potential sweepstakes to get an actual No. 1 center, that just means that negotiations are what they are and right now no one is really budging....
The Minnesota Wild’s offseason has been defined by moves that haven’t been made yet — re-signing Quinn Hughes and trading for a center. Still, that doesn’t mean the team hasn’t undergone an overhaul. Blake Coleman and Max Shabanov will join the lineup as Mats Zuccarello, Marcus Johansson and others...
The Minnesota Wild are reportedly not happy with what they saw on the ice last season from Kirill Kaprizov.
Růžička was taken by the Wild in the fifth round of the 2026 NHL Entry Draft last June.
The offseason lately in Minnesota has been a lot of warm weather, and just when it might cool down, the heat comes right back. It doesn’t feel like hockey weather,…
The Minnesota Wild’s most critical task this summer isn’t chasing free agents or tinkering with the depth chart. It’s locking up star defenseman Quinn Hughes to a long-term contract extension. After trading significant assets to acquire him midseason, the franchise has too much invested, competitive...

Following a report from Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman that the Minnesota Wild let Mats Zuccarello walk because he and Kirill Kaprizov were essentially too good together, we look at three other NHL duos that might be too reliant on one another.
We all know how good Minnesota Wild star Matt Boldy is at hockey, but he's pretty good at golf too and he's showing it at the 2026 American Century Championship.
The Minnesota Wild offseason continues to chug along. On Friday, Guerin got deals done with all three remaining restricted free agents.
Both players signed two-way contracts, and are expected to be with AHL Iowa next year.
Detroit Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman is playing hardball with captain Dylan Larkin, after Larkin requested a trade over a month ago. Trade talks have gone nowhere, and Yzerman recently admitted it's not out of the question to see Larkin at Red Wings' training camp come September. Larkin originally submitted a list of three teams he'd accept a trade to, and they included the Minnesota Wild, Vegas Golden Knights and Florida Panthers, and since trade talks have stalled, it's now being ...
Reading the insider tea leaves, it looks like the Minnesota Wild and Detroit Red Wings are at an impasse in the Dylan Larkin negotiations. The Wild want the star center; the star center wants to go to Minnesota. However, Detroit GM Steve Yzerman's wish list doesn't line up with the Wild's assets. Da...
Three of the NHL's top teams in 2025-26 – the Colorado Avalanche, Dallas Stars and Minnesota Wild – have done little to help their roster this summer, writes Adam Proteau.
Matt Boldy has evolved into one of the Minnesota Wild’s most indispensable players, and his name should be firmly off the trade block. As a drafted-and-developed, two-way forward with elite offensive instincts and growing leadership qualities, Boldy has become an offensive engine for the Wild....
The Minnesota Wild typically try to keep a status quo. They don't like to see too many unrestricted free agents leave St. Paul and even if they do, they typically don't think that highly of them in the first place. That concept got thrown out the window this summer.
General manager Bill Guerin...

When looking at Bill Guerin's GM of the Year campaign, the Quinn Hughes trade stands as the No. 1 reason he landed the hardware. Retaining Kirill Kaprizov was another headline-grabber, and to a lesser extent, so was adding Michael McCarron and key depth pieces at the trade deadline.
But a big p...
Schmidt’s contract is a two-way deal, where he’ll earn an $850,000 salary in the NHL and $100,000 in the AHL.
Of all the Minnesota Wild’s early-offseason moves, signing Calvin Pickard has gone a bit overlooked.
It makes sense, given that Pickard is a veteran netminder who only played 16 NHL games last season. Still, the goaltender will likely appear in net for Minnesota, particularly early in the seas...
The only teams Larkin is reportedly interested in are the Panthers, Wild and Golden Knights.
