MNCountryLife Verified Member Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Boldy sure seemed to leave the 4 nations tournament with plenty of confidence. I expect a big year from him. He seems to have all the tools. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but he is also only a winger. Any Top team needs good Centers to be successful Wild only with two 2C s Eriksson Ek ( injury prone ) Rossi ( slightly underpaid ) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect a big year from him. He seems to have all the tools. He does have the tools. I can see him being a 50/50 guy. However, that projection is with 97 on the roster. I doubt he could reach his full potential without 97 on the roster. Yes, I know he scored a lot of points with Kirill not being on the ice. Without 97 he would become the focus of every team the Wild faces. I don't know if he has the grit to be that guy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asked if he wants to stay, he said, "Yeah, you guys know I like Minny." As for what he wantsin a new contract, he said he couldn't say now.

Imyourhuckleberry Verified Member Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 The Athletic, regarding Ohgren, then on Tarasenko & Ogre w/ JEE: Quote Ohgren scored 19 goals and 37 points in 41 games last season for AHL Iowa. He went into the offseason motivated after a positive exit meeting with the Wild brass and put in a ton of the work in the gym in his hometown of Stockholm, where he is trained by his dad, Andreas. And since returning to Minnesota, the Wild have made it clear that with Zuccarello hurt, he’s got a chance to secure a role on a scoring line. Quote Overall, coach John Hynes likes the look of the line so far. “I think they looked good in practice and in both scrimmage games,” Hynes said. “Ekky is such a good two-way centerman, and he can make plays. It looks like Ohgie’s moving his feet well, and he had a nice shot ([game winning goal]in the scrimmage). And Vladdy, from what I see, I like what I see from him as well. I think he’s playing both sides of the puck. I see him getting in on the forecheck. I see him tracking. But I think that his ability to make some plays has been impressive to me, as well. I think he’s a guy that seems like he knows what he’s going to do with the puck before he gets it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
