Wild trade candidates deep into 2024 NHL offseason |
The Minnesota Wild fell short of playoff expectations in 2023-24. Minnesota did make the 2023 postseason after an incredible regular season. In 2023-24, the Wild were well out of the playoff race even after firing head coach Dean Evason after 19 games. The Wild entered NHL Free Agency with little cap space. |

Can Bill Guerin Walk A Second Salary Cap Tightrope In 2025? |
Just a year ago, the Minnesota Wild had one of the cleanest salary cap pictures in the NHL. Despite having two years of Zach Parise and Ryan Suter's dead money counting against them, Dom Luszczyszyn ranked the Wild as the sixth-most efficient spenders in the NHL. A quick look at their contracts made it obvious why. Their three best players, Matt Boldy, Joel Eriksson Ek, and Kirill Kaprizov, were their three best contracts, and it wasn't close. |

Heartlanders extend affiliation with Minnesota Wild |
The Iowa Heartlanders on Friday announced a three-year affiliation extension with the NHL's Minnesota Wild. Under the affiliation agreement, the Heartlanders will continue to serve as a resource for the development efforts and personnel needs of both the Iowa Wild and Minnesota Wild. The agreement allows Wild prospects to be assigned to the Heartlanders for developmental purposes throughout the season. |

2024 World Junior Summer Showcase set to open play in Michigan |
PLYMOUTH, Mich. -- A gathering of four countries consisting of many of the best under-20 hockey prospects in the world will kick off the road to the 2025 IIHF World Junior Championship this week at USA Hockey Arena. Players from the United States, Canada, Finland and Sweden will get together for practices and scrimmages from July 26 to Aug. 3 in the first step toward selecting their teams for the 2025 WJC, which will be played in Ottawa from Dec. 26-Jan 5, 2025. "It's a very big time for us to actually get to know the players coming and it's a very difficult evaluation process with eight returners and then you're adjusting to see if (players sign professional contracts)," U.S. national junior |

What Are the Strengths and Weaknesses of the Wild's Prospect Pool? |
The Minnesota Wild have been heralded as a well-drafting team that has quickly, through the last few years, gathered up some key prospects who should hit the NHL starting this upcoming season. Steven Ellis at Daily Faceoff answered that question. Danila Yurov, Ryder Ritchie and Hunter Haight highlight the right side, while Liam Ohgren, Rasmus Kumpulainen and Rieger Lorenz occupy the left side. |

Can the Wild Balance Current and Future Needs With Their Goalie Trio? |
Filip Gustavsson trade rumors have circulated all offseason. The NHL Draft and free agency have come and gone, but Gustavsson is still on the Minnesota Wild's roster, meaning they will start the season with the same goalie duo they had last year. Marc-Andre Fleury will enter his age-40 season, and Gustavsson will be coming off a down year. The Wild also has its goalie of the future playing in the AHL. |

Should Jared Spurgeon Finish Out His Contract As the Wild's Captain? |
For an organization that has long been known as distinctively un-wild, the Minnesota Wild sure have had no shortage of hot-button topics as of late. From a slew of curious veteran contract extensions and an overcrowding in goal with no immediately defined path forward, to a few knock-out drafts that have the Wild's prospect pool overflowing with high-end potential, there's a little something for everyone these days. Meanwhile, captain Jared Spurgeon recuperates in the background, a space he seems perfectly content to occupy. Despite appearing in only 16 games last season, more pressing topics have largely kept any conversations surrounding the fate of the Wild's captain off to the side. |

Was Zeev Buium the Slam-Dunk Pick Everyone Thought? |
In the ruthless scramble for Lord Stanley's Cup, NHL franchises don't just build contenders, they cultivate them. The true foundation often lies years in the past, meticulously constructed through the NHL Draft. Teams secure the raw potential of future stars in the draft, young players brimming with talent and the hunger to prove themselves. Unfortunately, Bill Guerin hasn't yielded much fruit from the draft during his tenure. |

Perception Is Not Reality With Minnesota's Roster Flexibility |
It's amazing how quickly perceptions can change in the NHL. Just a few years ago, Bill Guerin was the belle of the ball in St. Paul. As soon as Guerin sold off the previous regime's “country club” roster, he replaced it with his own cozy and comfortable work environment. There's also the plethora of no-movement contracts Guerin attached to aging vets with no discount when other NHL teams with attractive environments avoid such commitments. |

Don't Sleep On Ryder Ritchie |
Ritchie is the only forward Minnesota took in this draft class, but it got a stud with the 45th pick who has all the tools to be a modern-day NHL star. The Western Hockey League (WHL) named Ritchie was named the Rookie of the Year in 2022-23 after he recorded 20 goals and 35 assists in 61 games. |

Where Are They Now? Recent Wild Players Edition |
In the last few years, Bill Guerin has signed a core group of players to multi-year contracts (for better or worse). After going to arbitration last year for his salary, combined with the tight salary cap space and other players higher on the re-sign priority list, Duhaime knew it was almost impossible to stay in the Twin Cities. What made it even worse was how often he stated that he loved Minnesota and wanted to stay. After being traded to the Colorado Avalanche at the 2024 trade deadline, Duhaime became a free agent this summer. |

Wild Prospects at Upcoming World Junior Summer Showcase |
While we won't have any NHL hockey to watch for months, the true hockey sickos will at least have some hockey this summer. The World Junior Summer Showcase is where all the nations of the upcoming World Junior Championship get to strut their stuff and test out some players to see if they have what it takes to make their team for the year's tournament. A bonus: A couple of Minnesota Wild prospects have made it. Zeev Buium will be on Team U.S.A.'s roster, Riley Heidt on Canada, and 2024 fifth-rounder, defenseman Sebastian Soini has made Finland's roster. |

Wild first-rounder Charlie Stramel vows to get back on track |
Finish development camp. Get acclimated at Michigan State. Start the season. Those are the benchmarks on Charlie Stramel's mind this week when he was back home in Minnesota for the Wild's annual prospect meet-up, which wrapped on Thursday. Sure, he's chasing a much bigger ambition: to one day compete in the best league in the world. But after two challenging seasons — the second one as a ... |
