Article: Will Nico Sturm's Faceoffs Be A Game-Changer For the Wild?

Look, Sturm is a 4th line player, he's not much to get excited about! But, he should provide some jam to that line, a guy you can throw out for a crucial face-off at critical times, and hopefully be good killing penalties.  Overall I think its an upgrade over what we've had in that spot the last 3 years.

I don't think Nico Sturm is going to win a draw in game seven of the Stanley Cup to set up Kirill for an open shot to win the game.  

However, I do think that Nico can teach the rest of the Wild faceoff guys a few things that might improve the percentage a few points.  In a season ten to twenty more draw wins might be the difference of making the playoffs as a Wild Card and making the playoffs as a home team.
