On today’s episode of Locked on Wild, Alex Micheletti joins to recap the first weekend of the NHL Playoffs. We look at the awesome home atmospheres, especially in Winnipeg and Vancouver and why the Wild need to defend their home ice vigorously going forward. We discuss why they need to not only win at home, but early starts and early leads at home are vital to keep the crowd in it. We look at the list of former Wild players currently in the playoffs and debate whether that full roster of players could beat the current Minnesota Wild roster. We finish by playing “Deal or No Deal” with Wild players with expiring contracts to see who they should try to re-sign. We also discuss why Declan Chisholm NEEDS to be top priority to retain this offseason among impending free agents.

#1 priority is Yurov.
Any news on Declan Chisholm? Will his contract be renewed?
*UNRELATED: Hi all, I know we've all talked A LOT about buying out more players. I did some research. In 2024-25, the Wild would only be allowed to buyout 1 player because of the #11 and #20 buyouts. Teams are only allowed 3 total buyouts "under contract" at any given time……..
Nyquist would be in green if Guerin had cash. I was hoping he would have found a way to keep him as he was still injured last playoffs with the Wild.
Chisholm is a must, Shaw and inspiration, so I would sign him. The others are all expendable.
The Wild are halfway to a SC playoff roster. Replace 3 D, 6 forwards, and a goalie. They are not only the smallest team in the league but one of the oldest. The good news is they have a fantastic core and a bunch of up and coming young players. They need to keep adding pieces asap but we’re talking a few years. The future is bright and the Wild are without question on the way up. Shout out to Judd B. We need some more magic this year.
