When To Expect Danila Yurov In Minnesota |
Minnesota Wild prospect Danila Yurov is a Gagarin Cup champion after his Metallurg team ended up winning in the Finals to take it all. The forward played a significant role in the championship and that only furthered our collective anticipation for seeing him in a Wild sweater as soon as possible. According to Michael Russo of The Athletic, the Wild have attempted to bring the young Russian forward overseas but were unsuccessful. Yurov coming over now would suddenly mean a huge influx of young talent that is trying to get on this NHL roster, and potentially squeezing each other out of a spot. |

The Wild Can Expect More From Their Top Line Next Year |
A big focus of the Minnesota Wild's offseason is improving their secondary scoring. At 5-on-5, that trio scored 53 of Minnesota's 155 goals (35.2% of the total). Marco Rossi (18) and Ryan Hartman (12) were the only other Wild players who scored 10 or more goals. |

Notre Dame-West Haven to play holiday hockey tournament in Warroad, Minn. |
The Green Knights are planning to play in the Hockeytown Holiday Classic, Dec. 26-28, in Warroad, Minn., coach Larry Vieira said. “I'm always trying to attract student-athletes to Notre Dame,” Vieira said, “and in order to do that, we want to have a product that stimulates the kids, No. 1, and No. 2 gets them ready for us and the next level.” Brainstorming led him to Minnesota, where the state hockey championships routinely draw big crowds to Xcel Energy Center, home of the NHL's Wild. Vieira said he made a few calls and wound up lucking into a spot in this tournament. |

Al Shaver, voice of the North Stars, has died at age 96 |
In the spring of 1993, at a time when it felt like the hockey world was abandoning Minnesota, Al Shaver stuck around. Hired as the radio voice of the expansion Minnesota North Stars in 1967, Shaver had been there through all 26 of their seasons at Met Center. Shaver, who was retired and living in British Columbia at age 96, died on Monday following a brief illness, according to his family. Wally Shaver, Al's son and the long-time voice of Gophers men's hockey, said he was able to spend a few of those final days with his father, sharing some great stories about their many hockey adventures. |

The Wild Could Trade Jared Spurgeon To Four Contending Teams This Offseason |
Minnesota Wild captain Jared Spurgeon's No-Movement Clause (NMC) will turn into a Modified No-Trade Clause (M-NTC) this offseason, meaning the Wild have more flexibility with his cap hit than in previous years. Spurgeon is a beloved player in the “State of Hockey” who has played a top-four defense role for 14 years. Many fans feel he should be untouchable, but the Wild aren't in a Stanley Cup winning window right now. Spurgeon has three years remaining on his seven-year contract, and less term means the Wild should be more equipped to trade him. |

Minnesota Wild roster 2024-25: Who stays and who goes? |
The Wild are almost at gridlock, with most of their lineup under contract. But that doesn't mean management won't look to make changes, especially after the Wild didn't make the playoffs. Star Tribune NHL beat writer Sarah McLellan analyzes the team's roster and forecasts what's ahead for each player: ADAM BECKMAN Left/right wing (age 22) Beckman had a chance to make an impression on team brass during a late-season promotion from the minors but chipped in only two assists. Contract: Restricted free agent. 2024-25 outlook: Re-signing Beckman would give Iowa back its top goal getter. ZACH BOGOSIAN Defense (age 33) The physical, shutdown defender arrived as-advertised after an in-season trade from |

Bill Guerin Has To Rebuild Trust With the Minnesota Wild Fanbase |
The Stanley Cup Playoffs started on Saturday, and for the second time in 12 years, the Minnesota Wild had already cleaned out their locker room. The players gave their media debriefings and went their separate ways for the summer. Fans in the State of Hockey are now left to either adopt another NHL team, or perhaps the Minnesota Timberwolves, to vicariously glom their championship dreams onto. In between, all eyes will be on Bill Guerin to see if he can get the organization on track for next year. |

The Wild May Have Trouble Moving Gustavsson This Summer |
It's quiet in Minnesota as the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs begin this weekend. Fleury had told the media that he wanted to play another season, but only if it was in Minnesota.

Montreal scores twice in final minutes and rallies to beat Minnesota 4-3 in PWHL |
MONTREAL (AP) — Kristin O'Neill scored twice, and Montreal rallied in the final minutes to beat Minnesota 4-3 on Thursday night in the Professional Women's Hockey League. Trailing 3-2, Montreal pulled its goalie for an extra attacker with 2:49 left in the game, and the move paid off. Laura Stacey scored past Minnesota goaltender Maddie Rooney and tied the game with 2:23 left. After Minnesota's Maggie Flaherty took a minor penalty for holding, O'Neill scored her second of the game with 46 seconds remaining, completing the come-from-behind win. Both teams returned to action after a nearly month-long break for the world championships. Montreal got significant contributions from Canadians who won |

On cleanout day, Wild dispense with excuses |
A lot of ink has been spent on the Wild's myriad injuries this season, all of which played a part in the team missing the postseason for just the second time in 12 seasons. The primary message from everyone involved — from the players to general manager Bill Guerin — was that the team just didn't play well enough. What was most interesting were the internal theories about why the team stumbled. “I've always said in years past how much I would hate to play against us,” veteran forward Ryan Hartman said. |

Joel Eriksson Ek Should Take Boxing Lessons This Offseason |
The Minnesota Wild's offseason has started early, but that means more time for improvement before the 2024-25 season starts. Joel Eriksson Ek has an entire extra month to put his intense fitness regimen into action. Known as Mr. September, Eriksson Ek always comes into training camp in the best physical shape. There are a few other things that Eriksson Ek should work on during the offseason. |

Kraken outlast Wild 4-3 in final regular-season game for non-playoff teams |
Tye Kartye tipped in a slap shot by Oliver Bjorkstrand for the tiebreaking goal with 2:40 remaining, and the Seattle Kraken held on to beat the Minnesota Wild 4-3 on Thursday night to wrap up the regular season for two teams that missed the playoffs. Brock Faber answered Yanni Gourde's empty-netter with 1:46 left by scoring for the Wild on a 6-on-4 power play with 1:05 left and goalie Marc-Andre Fleury pulled, but Kraken goalie Joey Daccord — who had 21 saves — and the defense held up. |
