    By Thomas Williams -

    It's the start of a beautiful season: Hockey season. And that means that the Minnesota Wild are starting the process to shape their roster for the start of the 2024-25 regular season.

    The Wild's training camp opens on Thursday and as the team announced on Tuesday, they have a 57-player training camp roster -- full of regulars, top prospects, AHL depth players, and some camp invitees.

     

    While the roster is fairly set, there are only a couple spots open, especially if some players disappoint and others really take every opportunity. We can assume what players will be in what role, but it will all shake out over the next couple of weeks, and we will witness it all.

    That's Wild

    • One player that is attending training camp is Caedan Bankier. And lately, thanks to some team prospect rankings, he is getting some hype as someone who didn't really pop off on the stat sheet during his time in junior hockey. [Hockey Wilderness]

    Off the trail...

    • The Detroit Red Wings got one of their two giant restricted free agent contracts settled, by signing Lucas Raymond to an eight-year deal right out of his rookie contract. [NHL.com]
    • Every team's worst contract heading into the 2024-25 season. [Bleacher Report]
    • Some buzz is happening with the rookies around the league right now, as rookie camps start to die down and we wonder if any can make the team's final roster. One rookie we do know that is making the roster for sure is Philadelphia Flyers' Matvei Michkov. And he just so happened to put on a solid display in their own rookie games. [NHL.com]

    *Worst Contract for the Minnesota Wild*

    *Goes in and expects it to be Foligno or Hartman for some reason*

    *Sees Suter/Parise instead*

    Oh yeah...those are STILL way worse.  One more year.

    It probably won't be made public, but to me the most intriguing part of training camp, at least early on, will be the measurements phase. I don't know why teams hide this so much, but I'd like to see the progression here from the kids. For instance, after hearing that Rossi came in stronger than last year, I'm not going to be happy with a 5'9" 190 measurement. 

    Same thing can be said of Ohgren, Bankier, Dino, Lauko, Trenin, Faber, Chisholm, Lambos, Spacek, Masters, Peart and even Brodin. 

    Simply put, the measurements mostly will show what the athletes did this summer. The height might actually show a late growth spurt too. I really don't see what the big secret is. It's not like wrestling where guys are listed at 6'10" 400, and you can clearly see this is not so.

    According to Hynes Boldy has added muscle this year also.
