On today’s episode of Locked on Wild, Alex Micheletti joins as we start by discussing Matt Boldy’s contract and why it is among the best bargains in the entire NHL. We look at the value he brings offensively and defensively, as well as why it is perfectly fine to want to see more from him as he develops. We also discuss the most tortured fanbases in the NHL, and marvel at how the Wild check in at 7th. We discuss the rest of the top 10 and look at why the Wild should be higher considering they have never even gone to the Stanley Cup Final. We finish by looking at Scott Wheeler’s goalie prospect rankings, and Jesper Wallstedt being ranked number 1. We also discuss why a 3 goalie rotation is a bad idea, and why his best development path is learning at the NHL level!

(I'm at work so I won't be able to listen to the video until this afternoon)
I would say both Ek's and Kirill's contracts are a better bargain than Boldy's. Fingers crossed Jesper is as advertised. You never know with prospects, especially goalies. Let us not forget, @ one point Kaapo Lahkonen was the best goalie in the AHL as well, and we all know how that turned out……..*Unrelated – Sunscreen, Seth. Sunscreen.
Hi guys
Toronto
Buffalo
Minnesota
When Alex was on the screen I assumed it was Monday😂
We cant even win the most pitiful fan cup…😢
When the Twins won in 87 it was surreal. Only the Twins in 91 since then.
I'd do Freddy and gus for laine
Are they going to be able to afford Faber when its time for him to get paid?
Happy Micheletti Friday Boys!!!!!
Real talk today, thanks fellas. "BuT wE cAn MaKe iT wOrK WiD TrEe GoAliES!!" No, you can't…and collateral damage thru trades is inbound. Hold onto your butts.
The Wild are a part of the entire market’s losing track record. While they haven’t broken hearts like the Vikings have, their lack of even getting to the Cup once is beyond unfathomable. With a market that produces a high percentage of NHL players, it is truly sad they haven’t hoisted the Cup for a diehard fan base who shows up nightly. The 3 goalie shuffle will not work long term, Wallstedt showed he’s close or ready now, let him play. If that involves moving Gusty, wait until the value skyrockets, injuries, poor play with a top contender etc. and grab a prospect or high pick or both.
Fun listen 👍!
