On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we start by looking at recent comments by Bill Guerin and a couple of recent articles suggesting the Wild will not look to add a goalie at the trade deadline. We look at what Philadelphia wants in return for Claude Giroux. Is the price too high? For the Wild, with so many prospects close to playing at the NHL level, would it still cost prospects beyond one of those players? While it may be, the Wild will certainly still keep an eye on other potential upgrades.
We move to Jack McBain, who reportedly is looking to sign elsewhere. The Wild have set a price for his rights, will they get it? If they do, Judd Brackett could potentially have 3 picks in round 2 in the NHL Draft. Is this better than having a proven player instead? This option gives Brackett plenty of assets to move up the board if he needs to, especially if the Wild hang onto this year's first round pick.
We finish by previewing tonight's game. The Wild will be at full strength, so there is nothing else to prevent this team from snapping their skid. Will they tonight? We look at whether or not Cam Talbot will bounce back, and if the Wild's special teams units need any changes to improve better. At the end of the day, even if the Wild lose, if they look better we will consider it progress.
