On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Alex Micheletti joins to react to the news last week of Brett McLean being announced as head coach of the Iowa Wild. We look at the potential fit for Doug Weight and John Hynes as assistant coaches tasked with turning the Wild Power Play into a respectable one. We discuss Gary Bettman's comments to the media regarding the current state of the NHL. We now know that the salary cap increase this year will be at most $1 million. We also react to Bettman and Deputy Comissioner Bill Daly heaping praise on Department of Player Safety head George Parros for cultivating a system that routinely fails to hand out adequate punishments. We finish by discussing potential free agents assuming the Wild do free up money to spend, with a nod to big defensemen and a couple of pipe dreams!
