Pregame The Penguins stick with the same skaters and line as last game and swap out goalies as they’ve done for every game so far in the season, putting Tristan Jarry in for the night. First period Minnesota strikes first, Ryan Shea and Kris Letang both get caught in space and slow to cover a […]

That's Wild It's no secret that the Minnesota Wild are essentially Kirill Kaprizov. Where he goes, they go. With some early-season struggles in all three zones (and especially at 5-on-5) that lead to losing possession of the puck just so easily, is Kaprizov trying to do too much? Does he fee...

There’s no sugarcoating it; the Minnesota Wild stink so far this season. The reasons for that are up for debate, but the results are not. A 3-5-3 record through eleven games and a humbling start to the home stand has left both the team and its fans searching for answers after their most recent defea...
That's Wild The Minnesota Wild clearly want something else on their blue line. Yes, there are so many good and solid players on it but they want that extra grit and grind and physicality and roughness to it that can take them to the next level. It is an issue that started to become more prom...
The Minnesota Wild lost 7-6 in overtime to the San Jose Sharks last Sunday, despite being heavily favored at -220 (FanDuel listed the Sharks at +185). The Sharks entered the game and were 1-5-2, dead last in the standings. The Wild also had a tough start to the season, having lost 5 of their last 6...
Recap of the game.
In a normal season, you would consider Marcus Johansson a bargain. Playing on a minimum salary contract for $800,000, Johansson has four goals and seven points in his first 10 games. He went from cheap insurance in case former first-round pick Liam Ohgren didn’t leap to become a full-time NHL player...
The Minnesota Wild were undoubtedly hoping for a better start to the season than their 3-5-2 record. While the campaign is still early, 10 games are enough to gather some data on how a team is playing. Little has gone right in Minnesota, but it's easy to pick out a few areas where the team has strug...
The Winnipeg Jets have dropped 2 of their last 3 contests and will be looking to right the ship tonight when they visit the Minnesota Wild at the Grand Casino Arena in Saint Paul.

The True Northers’ head coach Scott Arniel continues to shuffle 3 of his forward lines each game and for Tuesday’s game that also involves Nikita Chibrikov heading ...
You may have heard about this: The Buffalo Sabres are bad. Again. You also may be aware: The Minnesota Wild need scoring. Again. And perhaps you've known: The Wild used to have this fella in Buffalo named Alex Tuch. Are we all caught up? Great. Because you're going to hear a lot about...

How much can you panic about a 3-5-2 start? While the Minnesota Wild are in seventh place in the Central Division, it wouldn't have taken much for a few games to break differently. If one of four shots in overtime goes in on Sunday night, for example, the Wild would have entered Monday at a mu...
The season is not even one month in, and the Minnesota Wild are sitting in last place in the Central Division with a 3-4-1 record (7 points). How does a team with this much talent sit in last place in their division? They have not been consistent all season long. The Wild have looked goo...
It’s hard to say if the San Jose Sharks as a team have figured out how to win close games, but there’s one player on the Sharks who has definitely figured it out – Macklin Celebrini. It’s because of Celebrini that the Sharks beat the Minnesota Wild 6-5 in overtime last night and finished the four-game road trip with a .500 record. The 19-year-old forward put together another multi-point game, saving his most important point for the very end of the night. Celebrini sprinted onto the ice af...
