  • SBN Mock Expansion Draft: Who Did the Wild Lose?


    Guest

    Make the jump and find out.

    To put your minds at ease, the Wild lost:

    Harding was selected with the fourth pick in the draft, going to the new Winnipeg team, and Bouchard was selected 10th, going to Quebec.

    Gabe from Behind the Net is a huge supporter of Harding's, and he is basing the success of his new team on whether or not Harding can find consistency with increased playing time. If you read the post, he built a team around defense, so it would be likely that Harding would benefit from that.

    What Now?

    Since this is all for fun, what would you do now? You need a back-up goalie and a top line right winger. With the current free agents available, and with the current roster, who do you put where? Trades are not out of the question, in fact with the new found cap space, would be welcome. Since trades are so wide open to debate and fans tend to overvalue, let's just say we promote from within or hire a free agent.

    The back-up goalie seems an obvious move, with Anton "Borat" Khudobin moving into the role for the season. None of the free agent goalies still available are worth paying the money to ride the bench, and no other goalie in the system has any NHL experience.

    My bet, without a trade, the Wild would sign one of the cheaper vets, and move Mittens back to the top line.

    Now it is your turn. What would you do?
