Pierre-Marc Bouchard signs with Minnesota Wild
At the end of last season, I put a poll on my MN Wild Freak blog, asking readers which free agent should be the top signing priority for the Minnesota Wild. Brian Rolston and Pierre-Marc Bouchard tied. Well, we all know what happened to Rolston...but the Wild did manage to sign PMB this weekend to...
Wild sign Owen Nolan
The Minnesota Wild made a surprising move (or at least I was surprised) over the weekend when they signed veteran Owen Nolan to a two-year $5.5 million dollar contract. Nolan has 16 years NHL experience and the gray hair to prove it. He can easily win faceoffs and cover a corner with fierceness,...
Wild Sign Kurtis Foster
The Minnesota Wild signed defenseman Kurtis Foster to a one-year deal worth $1.025 million. It doesn't surprise me that they kept him to a one year deal since they are saving up future dollars for Marian Gaborik, that and there are no guarantees that Foster will be a top player after his leg...

Minnesota Wild Roster is a revolving door
Minnesota Wild is dangerously (or not so dangerously - its in the eye of the beholder) close to entering next season without any of the TEN unrestricted free agents who played for the Minnesota Wild last season. Let's look down the list (alpha by first name): 1. Aaron Voros - could be too...
Wild Spotlight Player: NIKLAS BACKSTROM
Fan favorite Niklas Backstrom is a goalie for the Minnesota Wild and has seen playing time increase ever since the 2006-2007 season when original starter goalie, Manny Fernandez, was sidelined due to a knee injury. In fact, the 2006-2007 season was Backstrom's first with the Wild. Although...

For the coming season, the Minnesota Wild has 14 players under contract and three more whose rights the Wild retain. These 17 players are: left wingers Stephane Veilleux and Derek Boogaard; right wingers Marian Gaborik, Pierre-Marc Bouchard and Mark Parrish; centers Mikko Koivu, Eric Belanger and...
Minnesota Wild Draft Day
It was a busy weekend for the Minnesota Wild and the NHL. Sure it was the beginning of summer, but it was also the NHL Entry Draft in Ottawa and what an interesting couple of days it was. Minnesota Wild general manager Dougie and his cronies spent Friday night working out deals to move around in...
