| Are the Wild's Opening Day Decisions A Long-Term Play? |
| After spending most of the Bill Guerin Era being cautious with bringing up young players, the Minnesota Wild's roster decisions ahead of Game 1 are a surprising change in direction. The Wild have not one, but two green rookies on the Opening Night roster. Liam Öhgren and Jesper Wallstedt are entering the season with the big club despite having only seven games of NHL experience between them. The Wild are doing this, even without a salary cap incentive to keep them down in the AHL. |

| Brock Faber leaves training camp with nothing but 'excitement' |
| If Brock Faber has flown a little under the radar in camp this fall, it's only because the defenseman, still only 22, has been such a steady force for good in the Minnesota Wild's lineup. In a 2023-24 season derailed by injuries, Faber played 82 games and led the team in minutes. In short, training camp is generally spent talking about how a team will fix the things it didn't do well the previous season, and Faber just doesn't fit into that conversation. No one, for instance, is asking Kirill Kaprizov what he can do better when the season opens Thursday against the Columbus Blue Jackets. |

| Wild sign goalie of the future to 2-year contract extension |
| The Minnesota Wild have gotten one key extension out of the way ahead of their 2024-25 season opener, signing goaltender Jesper Wallstedt to a two-year, $4.4 million contract extension on Monday. “This was my goal coming in,” the Wild's goalie of the future said of the new deal, per NHL.com's Jessi Pierce. The Swedish netminder will make $925,000 in 2024-25 before the extension kicks in next season. Although there are still three goalies in Saint Paul — both Filip Gustavsson and Marc-Andre Fleury are an important part of the equation this year — a time is coming soon when the youngster will be the undisputed No. 1 goaltender. |

| Wild Finalize Roster With Season Around The Corner |
| We are just days away from the Minnesota Wild opening their 2024-25 season on Thursday night hosting the Columbus Blue Jackets. Announced by the team, they sent defenseman Daemon Hunt down to AHL Iowa and placed forward Ben Jones on waivers to then, also, be assigned to Iowa. While that technically makes the Wild's training camp roster still at 27, four above the 23-player limit, there are exactly four injured players still on the roster on paper alone. Forwards Graeme Clarke, Luke Toporowski, and Mikey Milne, and goaltender Troy Grosenick are still listed on the Wild's training camp roster. |

| Friday Fright Night: 6 Wild, Blackhawks 1 |
| The Chicago Blackhawks lost another preseason game to the Minnesota Wild by another large margin, this time 6-1. The Wild scored on the power play seven minutes into the game, as Marco Rossi went top shelf with a beautiful snap shot. Four seconds later, Petr Mrazek thought the Wild were going for a dump-in but instead, Jonas Brodin's shot from the middle of the ice made it into the back of the net to make it 2-0 Wild. After fairly quiet second period, the Blackhawks finally showed some life when Seth Jones scored a goal with just over a minute left in the middle frame to bring them within one. |

| Wild owner confident Bally Sports North will broadcast entire 2024-25 season |
| Wild owner Craig Leipold said Tuesday he’s confident Bally Sports North will broadcast the team’s entire 2024-25 season but that the team and NHL are exploring other options for next season and beyond. The team’s future with BSN has been on thin ice since March 2023, when Diamond Sports Group, which owns all of Bally’s regional sports networks, filed for Chapter 1 bankruptcy protection. Since ... |
