Bench Heatley, or a trade comming perhaps?

 

[Engebretson]

I think McMillan could eventually be a solid NHL 4th liner or even step into a 3rd line role on occasion. Always liked him.

I wouldn't be opposed to this being a precursor to benching Heatley.

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

Russo said people are nursing 'minor injuries' so he will play if someone can't.

If anything, I'd bet that Coyle might sit out a game, as a precaution, which would move Fontaine back up to the top, Mitchell to the 3rd, and McMillan to the fourth.

McMillan recalled because there are a couple players nursing "minor injuries." He's a go if someone can't go #mnwild

Hello all-purpose band-aid.

This makes sense. Wishful thinking that Heatley would be scratched.

 

[Puhis]

McMillan, not McMillian.

 

[Jarick]

Coyle out; day to day.

I got super excited when I first heard this because I thought we were benching Heatley.

 

[Billy Mays Here*]

Should've called up Veilleux.

In all seriousness, glad to see Mcmillan get the call. He looked pretty solid in the pre-season.

 

[Hall of Faber]

I wonder how Zucker took this news?

 

[Jongdo]

I think Haula should be the next one to get the call.

I'm so worried about a RFA 'leaving'.

 

[DANOZ28]

just ****!

your comment is so insightful, are you 12 or 13?

lol wut?

You said you're worried that Zucker's not going to be here, and considering he's a RFA with 4 goals there is virtually no chance he won't be back, he has absolutely no leverage.

lets review, zucker is one of the fastest if not the fastest player on the wild. #2 he scored more than granlund last year & 3 he scored the biggest goal in recent wild history , yet hes not on the team? blank CF! ps i guess your not old enough to understand.

He also had a bad training camp, was less then impressive in his call-up, and went head-hunting in the AHL. Let him have some consistency and let him dominate the AHL, shuttling him back and forth does him no good.
