Quinn Hughes was a lot of things in Vancouver.
Captain. Norris winner. Franchise d-man.
“A great Canuck,” Brock Boeser says
But how will he be received in return with #mnwild ?
“He’ll be the villain.”

Wild and Flames tonight from Calgary.
Per John Hynes, Spurgeon and Maatta are back in for the #mnwild
Rieger Lorenz also jumps back into the lineup. One game-time decision for the Wild up front, according to the head coach.

#mnwild top line continues to excel. Penalty kill doesn’t come through as Wild fall short in overtime. + Lorenz, Hometown Remix uniforms, Calgary on Thursday.

#MNWild head coach John Hynes believes Danila Yurov will be a top-six center in the NHL. With three goals in four games and trade rumors swirling, his emergence presents Minnesota with an interesting decision.

We have recalled forward Hunter Haight and defenseman Carson Lambos from the Iowa Wild. The team also placed defenseman Jared Spurgeon on Injured Reserve.

It is borderline incomprehensible how the New York Islanders (25th in scoring in NHL last season) didn’t have Maxim Shabanov in their lineup half of the season… What a great fit so far in Minnesota with the Wild. Slots right into PP1 w/ goal here

Boy, Shabanov has been unreal. Just always finding where to go. Hartman set him up in the slot, but Hart made the save.
