  • Wild Prospect Dennis Endras Interview with SPOX.com


    Guest

    We are lucky enough to have a translation from Jennifer Conway, aka @NHLHistoryGirl to make it much more clear for us. After the jump, the translated interview as it pertains to the Wild.

    Before we go much further, let me just state that SBN has clarified the rules for foreign translation use after the PPP / Toronto Sun... um... incident. I sent an email to the company that owns SPOX.com, but did not receive a reply, likely because my German looked an awful lot like English. Thus, the entire interview is not used here, only a handful of quotes from it.

    Trust me when I say the bulk of the interview has more to do with how he feels about Augsburg's chances, and if he is excited to be back on the ice (in other words... fluff).

    Without further delay, Dennis Endras via SPOX.com:

    After talking to Endras briefly at development camp, and now with this interview, it is clear that Endras expects to be here in North America after his German season ends. Whether that ends up being a stint in Houston, or if he comes straight to Saint Paul is yet to be determined. He seems to understand his role in the Wild organization, and seems fully focused on the season at hand with Augsberg.

    The question about Backstrom being "seriously injured" caught me a bit off guard. If Harding had continued to struggle, and Backstrom could not have come back, would the Wild have really sent fro Endras to come over, mid season, with no North American experience at all? I find that difficult to believe, especially with some NHL back-ups available for trade, and Khudobin, Dubie, and Brust all available in Houston. I think Endras seeing the NHL last season would have been a pipe dream at best.
