new lines at practice today .... me likey
Kevin Falness @RadioFalness 3m
Interesting line combos for #mnwild with El Niño on top line with Koivu and Parise; Pominville with Heatley and Granlund
I don't get to watch many Minny games, can anyone tell me how Granlund has looked? I see he is getting more regular time....and putting up the odd point...
But thats all I got.....

Minnesota fans...what a fricken steal of a contract deal. Undrafted Zack Mitchell is in the middle of an OHL east championship dog fight and much like the season he has looked amazing. RW with exceptional faceoff capabilities...size, physicality and a fantastic set up and scoring touch. Enjoy him...ill miss him next year in Guelph.
Top 6 potential will fit in great as an accent to the grinders you already have!
Just offering some friendly fyi to the few wild fans out there.
Apparently all their goalies are healthy heading into camp
http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2...strom-harding/
Everything’s a go with both goalies,” Fletcher said of Backstrom and Harding. “Everybody seems to be feeling pretty good, and at this stage, knock on wood, all of our players who were banged up at the end of the season is feeling better. Josh has felt good. Right now we’re not expecting any issues for anybody with respect to passing training camp medicals.
“Now’s the time of the year, with about a month to go, you want to reach out and make sure there’s no issues you don’t know about so if there is something you have time to help the process. With Josh and Nik, you’re just trying to reach out and see how they’re doing. They’re both doing really well.”

For those of you watching the goalie situation, Byrz was released. Might work out a 2-way deal though.

The Wild PP units at practice today were significantly different than what most people imagined on July 1st.
Parise - Granlund - Pominville - Dumba - Suter
Vanek - Koivu - Nino - Spurgeon - Brodin (Coyle and Folin were also getting reps with this unit)
This is a much more PP1a and PP1b set up than a Parise/Granlund/Vanek/Pominville/Suter set up. The play of Dumba on the PP in the preseason has him likely getting both into the lineup and on the first PP unit to start the season.
Wild open with two straight shutouts vs the Avs. Kuemper looks damn good!!
would really appreciate some advice from Minny fans
I have been offered: Jimmy Howard for Granlund
my take: love the east/west tandem in Howie/Elliott and Howard should rack up nice points, BUT I am really hoping to build around my young core of fwds and D and Granny certainly fits that. Hate to sell low, but Burakovsky has kinda replaced him on my depth chart, so I would be looking at my #5/6 fwd for Howard. Goal heavy league too, so assist machine Granny slightly less valuable.
Still, guys like Harding and Scrivens are sitting on the wire and could be had for my worst guy, and I can keep my core intact.
As you can see, I am torn - help me out!
Thanks
EDIT: ended up landing Andersen without touching Granny so dilemma averted. Would still love to know what is going on with Granny though
