@russohockey.bsky.social did the crew at Grand Casino Arena repaint the center of the ice for the upcoming World Juniors while the Wild were on their last road trip?
The ice has been terrible and guys are having tons of trouble in the neutral zone.

@russohockey.bsky.social how much leash does Hartman have left? He was not good last night and Hynes is calling out his consistency already.
I know he has a 15 team trade list but would there be interest in him around the league where he doesn't have trade protection?

@russohockey.bsky.social Iowa is 5-14-1 holy smokes. They were supposed to be better as some of the top prospects turned pro. The stat lines are brutal down there.
When do they make fundamental changes to the development model?

@russohockey.bsky.social some dual purpose scouting going on here?
You mentioned there's a potential match between the Wild and Buffalo although Buffalo has not shown interest in what's been offered to date

Team USA GM Bill Guerin is on the press box seating chart for today’s game between the Sabres and Hurricanes. We’ll see if Alex Tuch and Tage Thompson can show off for him. Maybe Mattias Samuelsson will continue the offensive heater he’s on.

@russohockey.bsky.social I assume the Wild are going to claim John Beecher off the waiver wire from the Bruins given the rash of injuries to centers lately.
Do you agree?

Stop whining on tv, contact your legislators and tell them to fix this stupid s*** that this administration keeps pumping out

Tennessee soybean farmer: China has long been our biggest customer, and tariffs have cut into our ability to sell soybeans to them. We don't want a bailout. We just want access to free and open markets to sell our crops.

Jiricek must have the memory of a goldfish.
He just got burned for a three on two goal, whether that was his fault or not, but he's right back in pinching again when the play is at the ozone blue line. Such a dangerous mentality.
Press box trips might be the only way to beat this habit out of him

Jiricek caught for a 3-on-2 led by Wyatt Kaiser and it ends with Frank Nazar’s 4th goal in 2 games this preseason against Minnesota

This is what I was referring to
It's a little thing, but Zeev Buium picking off the pass then spinning behind the net and patiently working his way through traffic out of the zone was nice

@russohockey.bsky.social the goalies may literally boycott if Wild coaching staff throws out a defensive pairing of Jiricek and Buium.
Holy cow their defensive games are atrocious.

Watching the highlight of that second goal, that one probably can't go in.
I read your original story and Cal Peterson was supposed to get the start and play the whole game, that changed the day later to Wallstedt, is that part of the plan or are they not seeing what they like in camp from Wallstedt?

@russohockey.bsky.social do you think the start of training camp tomorrow puts any type of pressure on both sides of the Kaprizov stalemate to get the negotiations restarted had to hammer out something before camp starts and all parties are subject to Media availability?

@russohockey.bsky.social late addition for the mail bag, reports are that Martin Necas is not happy in Colorado.
Do you think the Wild would ever entertain a Ryan Hartman + for Necas trade? Seems like Colorado has lost some grit with recent trades.
Curious if you think this would go anywhere.

*Freudian slip, Nico Sturm
Seems very peculiar that they've been quiet for this long after announcing they were nearing bringing back Marco Sturm.
I'm both curious and terrified at the same time as to what's happening.

@russohockey.bsky.social do you think there could be any chance Guerin gets Malkin to consider leaving Pittsburgh for this year and next year in a Wild uniform?
Seems like a perfect mentor for Yurov and a natural to center Kaprizov.
Pittsburgh is going to be God awful for the foreseeable future.

@russohockey.bsky.social any chance that William Nylander has had enough in Toronto and asks for a change? Would be a really good addition to the Swedish Mafia on the Wild.
