Wild have had little cap space this off-season and thus haven't been competitive on bids. So we took some shots on some guys who wouldn't hopefully get much attention.
Caleb Jones- I was surprised to see on the free agency list. He's ranked the #5 prospect by THN within the Oilers organization and has developed well since being drafted. He joins his brother in the Wild organization.
Ryan Murphy I traded early this summer, but with a fresh start in the NHL Wild, I think he has a fresh opportunity. I've always been high on his skill.
I always like to have 3 CPHL goalies so that when I rest my starter, I can scratch them completely, so Michael Neuvirth will be that guy and potentially be a cheap back up for the next 3 years.
