Looking at the playoff teams I started to notice a lot of decent former Wild players start to stick out and score goals.
This got me thinking. Could you fill out an entire roster with former Wild players? Would they be any good? Could they beat this year's Minnesota Wild?
I ended up discovering (thanks to the All-Time Roster feature on Wild.com) there are enough players to fill out a line-up. Actually, enough to have 10 reserves. Here are the lines I ended up developing.
Marian Gaborik - Martin Havlat - Brian Rolston
Pascal Dupuis - Andrew Ebbett - Andrew Brunette
Benoit Pouliot - John Madden - Joel Ward
Adam Hall - Dominic Moore - Richard Park
Willie Mitchell - Marc-Andre Bergeron John Scott
Reserves
Patrick O'Sullivan, Casey Wellman, Petr Sykora, James Sheppard, Mark Parrish
Zbynek Michalek, Maxim Noreau, Sean O'Donnell,
So, that's a really interesting team. They have a lack of talent at center (Hence Havlat centering the first line), but they've got solid goaltending, decent scoring talent and some... interesting reserves.
What do you think? How would this team fare?
(Side note: I fail at SBN formatting)
