Article: Where Are They Now? Recent Wild Players Edition


Recommended Posts

Carson Soucy wasn't on the list, but I would argue that he and Nyquist are the guys most missed. Even through Nyquist's run was rather short, he showed a lot of skill when he was on the ice for the Wild.

Soucy is on a 3-year $9.75M($3.25M per year) deal with Vancouver going into the 2nd year, but I understand that he was not a recent player, so that's why he was left off the list. Soucy has finished at least +7 in every season he's played more than 3 games, which is now 5 straight years.

Soucy turns 30 later this month, and appears to have been injured for a sizeable portion of last season(2 separate injuries), but replacing him has not been easy for the Wild.

Great article, but you forgot to add Mr. KwikTrip himself. After Dallas realized he’s a pain in the ass, he was bought out once again, and now Ryan Suter is moving on to St.Louis after signing a one-year deal.

I think Bjugstad's, Sturm's, and Soucy's sizes are all missed too:

  • Nick Bjugstad: 6'6" 209 lbs
  • Nico Sturm: 6'3" 209 lbs
  • Carson Soucy: 6'5" 212 lbs

Last season, Minnesota was the shortest and lightest team in the league:

  • 2023-24 Team's Average Height: 6'0"
  • 2023-24 Wild's Average Weight: 193 lbs
  • 2023-24 NHL's Average Height: 6'1"
  • 2023-24 NHL's Average Weight: 200 lbs
