Should the Wild be Worried about the two Preseason Losses?

The Roster

So 4-1 makes a bit more sense when you look at who was playing for the Wild and who was playing for the Jets. Also isn’t surprising that the three stars of the game were Bona Fide NHLer (and Skol Clapper) Blake Wheeler, Bona Fide NHLer (and recently paid) Josh Morrissey, and Bona Fide NHLer Mark Scheifele.

Kaapo Kahkonen let in two goals in the first 90 seconds of the game before settling in and former Gopher Mat Robson “let” two in as well, granted one was an empty-net goal.

The positive to take away from this game?

Jordan Greenway is incredibly talented as a Power Forward and Nico Sturm showed great game sense and awareness to follow the play. Would not mind seeing him make the NHL roster.
