Article: What Would A Post-Kaprizov Minnesota Wild Team Look Like?


Recommended Posts

There are some distinct differences from the post-Gaboeik years to what a post-Kaprizov situation would look like.

Post-Gaborik

- Koivu and Backstrom were pretty good, but the forward and defensive lines were riddled with meh.

40-60 pt player peaks, with 20s-40s mixed in.

Young guys were very...VERY underwhelming.  Took a few years for Granny, Brodin, and Dumba to show up.

Post-Kaprizov

- Boldy is a better winger than anything post Gaborik had.  Probably same level as a Parise even.

- Brodin, Spurgeon, Faber

- Buium might be a better prospect than anything the Wild had for those few years.

- Gus is almost as good as Backstrom was.

- $15-18m NOT to spend on one guy.  Maybe someone in FA will take a chance, or even 2-3 with that money.
