Connor Dewar could potentially find himself in a bottom six role next season with Minnesota. That is where we have seen him graduate to this season and he has done well in the roles that Wild coach Dean Evason has put him in.

Dewar has so far been a 50/50 split this season between Iowa and Minnesota scoring 17 points for Iowa in 19 games and registering two goals and six points with the big club this season in which one of those was his first in the NHL.

In my mind, Dewar adds a wildcard dimension to the Wild’s lineup that could be hard to play against and he also has one heck of a shot that I could hope we see more of going down the stretch.
