Supposed to be a fast, good PP-PK guy. They gave up Boston's 5th rounder they got for retaining Orlov's salary.

Tomdog Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I kind of like these moves. Realistically cheap. Adds depth. Gives a replacement for Greenway and Reeves. Keeps the promising youth in Iowa for next year. If Dewar and Shaw improve next year as much as Duhaime did this year, the team will have 2 good 3rd line options. Both Nyquist and Johanson should be able to help Boldy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish these moves would get rid of Reeves. IMO he is the biggest waste of a roster spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icechipper Posted March 1, 2023 Author Share Posted March 1, 2023 We're one defenseman short of rolling out a Swedish juggernaut of Gustafson in net, Erickson-Ek pivoting Johannsson and Nyquist, and Brodin back on that blue line.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't the point of this to find somebody to help Boldy? Hartman didn't do anything with him and I doubt Dean's going to move him off L1 since it's been better for Hartman. If Greenway and Reaves continue to start and we lose some of the youth playing, I'll call this a parallel move then with a returning player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounded like line #2 was going to be Johansson-EEK-Boldy with Greenway sliding to the third line and Steel and Shaw being the scratches... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand scratching Steel, and I know Greenway has more history/experience and a bigger contract. But I don't see his game being so untouchable. Shaw has been so good on the PK and very good with the limited time he gets. Greenway better start bringing his A game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m guessing Greenway will be moved this summer, so they want him playing to showcase him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played well for 2 or 3 games but I didn’t think he played that great for the last 2, so what are you showcasing? Will he play better in the playoffs? I certainly hope so.

You forgot to mentioned Wallstedt as a future backup goalie for Gustavsson. Not bad at all. Swedish players always presented more a defensive power for each team. Still wish to see also more talented offensively minded Minnesotans too in our team including Walker. I can't believe that in the Wild history we are not able to find and sign a highly scoring but native from Minnesota forward who could make crazy arena during the games here. That would be a huge treasure for the Minnesota State of Hockey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandron Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) I did not find in our local media how Wild was involved and have got a 5th round pick in 2023 for the transfer of Orlov from Washington to Boston. After reading Boston news from my understanding our prospect Andrei Svetlakov was involved to that transfer too through the Washington Capitals team. Here is an article: https://www.stanleycupofchowder.com/2023/2/23/23612737/boston-bruins-trade-to-wild-a-pick-and-get-back-andrei-svetlakov-nhl-hockey-minnesota-khl-cska Edited March 2, 2023 by Alexandron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
