I would think a part of Boldy’s journey to the NHL and during his time in Minnesota will be mentorship, a key part of his potential success at this level.

In order to achieve that, perhaps Boldy could work with a guy like Zach Parise, who has a long successful career in the NHL.

Perhaps Mats Zuccarello also takes the rookie forward under his wing and as we’ve seen with how that worked out with Kirill Kaprizov, that might not be such a bad idea.
