Have more points than the Wild
Dallas is just right behind along with New York Rangers, Tampa Bay and Detroit. Phoenix, Ottawa, Washington are having off years. Columbus is surging again.
Minnesota is in the category of Toronto at this point where they aren't an elite team and currently a borderline playoff team.
I mean do you think Chicago or St. Louis is worried about not making the playoffs?
Actually, you can blame him exactly for that. Our draft position is due to how he was building the team. A year or two of just bottoming out like Buffalo or Colorado did might have done some wonders for this organization.
You don't think a player like Alex Galchenyuk would have been better than Dumba? Or Lindholm?
It's the way of the Wild. They'll never be bottom feeders like that.
