Let’s go over some news and notes:
- The Wild dropped the second game of their back-to-back against the Avalanche last night. And you’ll never believe this, but they lost beyond regulation. Shocker, right? [NHL]
- Let’s check in on some of Minnesota’s youngsters. If you’re looking for an NCAA team to root for this year, Boston College should certainly be that team. [Hockey Wilderness]
- Being an NHL player alone is extremely taxing, but playing in the NHL while managing diabetes is nothing short of remarkable. For this reason, among many others, it’s hard not to root for Luke Kunin. [The Athletic]
- Minnesota’s roster is a tad bit smaller this morning.
The #mnwild will place Matt Bartkowski, Luke Johnson and Kyle Rau on waivers Monday. They will be assigned to Iowa on Tuesday if they clear waivers, reducing the Wild’s training camp roster to 29 players.
