On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Spoked Z joins the show to dive into the Kevin Fiala news. We look at a few big factors that are playing against Fiala, such as the Wild's current salary cap situation, and whether or not Dean Evason simply feels more comfortable calling Fiala out more freely because of their previous history. No matter which way you look at it, it seems like Fiala's situation will be resolved sooner rather than later.
We move to recent rumors that the Wild have inquired into J.T. Miller with Vancouver underperforming. What would Miller bring to the Wild? Would he help solve the Wild's center depth issues considering he has spent most of his time as a wing with the Canucks? What would it cost to get him? Should the Wild look at Elias Pettersson also?
We finish by looking at the Eastern and Western Conference Playoff Picture. Statistically, 77% of teams that are in the playoffs by Thanksgiving end up making the Playoffs at the end of the year. We ask Spoked which teams currently in the playoff field in both conferences won't end up their at the end of the year, and the answers may surprise you.
