Hopefully they throw a game at a few different kids. Rest Freddy and a bunch of others.

All I want is a photo of Ohgren and Wallstedt in the same picture....

25 is Ohgren, 1 is Wallstedt. 22 IIHF Worlds.

I have that - I want Wild jerseys. It'll come ... and maybe Yurov in that photo as well

While Milne has been the best forward in recent weeks, and Bankier has improved his all around game + earned it more IMO, my guess is a) it was discussed to get him over for the rest of the season and b) it will be a huge eye opener for the kid so he can be super motivated for the offseason. I like the kid, I like his skillset, and I hope he has a good showing, but he looked overwhelmed in the three AHL games...I mean the amount of turnovers he had last night would get any non 1st rounder/high ranked prospect benched for the rest of the game and down a line or two the following games. Firstov has been scratched already this year for less with Iowa (could be attitue/effort in practice, I don't know - point is, this isn't a merit based callup for performance in the AHL).

honestly i think firstov was more ready than ohgren, i like ohgren and im glad hes getting a shot.

Kind of a strange request, but who am I to judge? The heart wants what the heart wants. Have at it man.

*edit* Damn, I had to put my kids to bed and Wabit beat me to it. Well played, sir.

This isn't anything new in this organization for sure. The Wild don't have a merit based system, and haven't for a while, as much as some people want to believe they do.

All I know is if Ohgren doesn't get a goal @Sweetnut Can be blamed!

I'm excited to see the kid

Ok, enough with the pictures everybody. Quit clowning around. This is a hockey board, we're not supposed to have fun.

Any truth to the rumor that Ohgren actually mailed in his performances in the SHL playoffs so he could get over here faster?

If true, I would be curious if he forgot to unmail it in when he got to Iowa

Ohgren with Khusnutidov, now we just Yurov to complete the kid line

Think he can unseat Johansson as soon as next season for a top-6 winger spot? Marcus isn't exactly setting the highest bar with his productivity (30 points in 76 games isn't exactly lighting the world on fire).

Maybe...In this last game aganist San Jose Kap was giving him some side eye. As in "thank god you shot? it was hard and went of the post but you shot" Knowing the wild they will suguest against this and tell him not to shoot.

Idk about that. It’s a contract year for Jo Jo

 

[Kshahdoo]

The only PPG player on the team save Kaprizov...

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Öhgren/Wallstedt need to be on the team next year, lets go!

 

[BagHead]

So I said that if Ohgren and Khusnutdinov have bad games, I'll want to burn it down, but good games and I'll predict a Cup within 2 years. Since then they have a combined 4 points in 2 games.

I've got a map of St. Paul and some thumb tacls ready, but I'm quite busy. Anyone able to help me with planning the parade?

 

[57special]

I'm hoping Yurov has been watching Ohgren's success, his celly with his countryman (Brodin), and thinks, " Hey, i can do that, and with Kaprizov!"

 

[Lapa]

I, for one, welcome our new Swedish overlords

Don't worry, we 're getting Helenius in the draft to restore things to their Natural Order.
