The Wild have a few guys who have made the show to start the year:
- James Van Riemsdyk - has won a spot with the Flyers and could compete for the Calder
- Janik Hansen - made the Canucks but is on IR and will be for quite some time.
- Ville Leino - will play in the Wings top 9, and is also a Calder candidate.
- Anssi Salmela - stuck with ATL but could be a scratch. We'll have to see how much he plays.
- Alexandre Picard - should put in a full season with Ottawa
- Matt Smaby - made the bolts over the likes of Matt Lashoff but T-bay STILL has like 8 NHL bodies on the blueline.
- Anton Stralman - should have traded him to the Ducks when he was a Flame but looks like he'll get a long look with CBJ.
- Ondrej Pavalec stats the year in ATL. No idea what will happen once Lehtonen returns
- Luca Sbisa should put in a full year with the Ducks.
- Alex Pieterangelo - with the Blues still, could be sent back to junior
Dissapointments:
- Anders Ambuhl was cut early from the Rangers
- Carl Soderberg who is NHL ready still refuses to come across the pond to join the Bruins.
- Kyle Turris - will start the year in the AHL. Not a surprise but it's lame that some Gm actually signed this guy to an AHL contract before he was in the NH
- Corey Schneider goes down to the AHL - needs to get dealt.
