    That's Wild

    • It's fairly obvious, but one major thing that the Vegas Golden Knights have over the Minnesota Wild in the first-round matchup, is depth at the forward position. They even said it out loud. The Golden Knights are hoping that they can just roll though the lines and take advantage of having more talent down their lineup than the Wild, to push them to the second round. [TSN]
    • The Wild can win the first round if this one specific thing from Game 1 doesn't change. [Hockey Wilderness]
    • The Wild are about to play a game that ESPN is trying to hide from the world. [Hockey Wilderness]
    • Expect adjustments coming from Vegas ahead of Game 2. [NHL.com]
    • One major win the Wild did have in their loss (if we can say that) is Ryan Hartman not taking the bait. [InForum]

    Off the trail...

    • The Vancouver Canucks' front office held a press conference on Monday and it was, dramatic. One major point that came of it is that they are going to try to do everything they can to keep defenseman Quinn Hughes, and maybe that includes tampering. [NHL.com]
    • Before the Under-18 Worlds get underway, a quick 2025 NHL Draft ranking from Steven Ellis. [Daily Faceoff]
    • The Seattle Kraken fired head coach Dan Bylsma after just one season. [NHL.com]

    Doesn't take much to shut down a rusty Kaprizov and Boldy. We have 1 line and 4 d-men. The Bettman Knights have 4 solid lines. Should be a very quick series.

    You mean the 2 goal scoring Boldy and the 2 assist Kap from game 1? Little puck luck one way and a few calls being made that should have been made, game 1 may have been different. The stuck with them on the physicality, had some great chances that didn't bounce their way, gus looked sharp, even on the first goal by vegas, while maybe a bit deep, it took an absolute perfect shot to get that to go in. Perhaps I have my green and wheat glasses on but I don't think this looks like a very quick or easier series.

    I really hope something good happens for the Wild.
