Josh Harding's future

Tagged with:

While browsing through articles on the Bleacher Report, I came across this article about the Wild (the second half of the article is about the Timberwolves). Wild GM Chuck Fletcher has already had a conversation with Josh Harding about his future in Minnesota ... As expected, Harding will likely be moved this offseason. Harding told Fletcher that he would like to be traded somewhere where he has a chance to be a starting goaltender, which Harding deserves ... So who exactly may be

Does Bruno stay?

Published May 5, 2010 at 1:26 a.m.

I've been hearing speculation he won't. If that's the case, I'd like to know how Fletch is going to replace 25 goals and 61 points on a team already struggling in the offense department. He has said he doesn't expect to spend much during UFA season. Trade scenarios escape me without giving up part of the "core" of the team, unless picks change hands. Where does that leave us? Any opinions? Rumors? ...

2010 NHL Draft

Published May 4, 2010 at 6:39 p.m.

Now that that draft lottery is over and we know that the Wild will be picking 9th overall the draft speculation can begin. Given the current state of the Wild and the menial depth of talent in Houston, I would have to believe that Fletcher is seriously considering dropping down in the draft and grabbing more picks. All drafts are inherently hit or miss but most articles I've seen in the last couple of months seem to indicate that the real impact players are all in the top 8. So if you were

... This is my first fanpost/fanshot on HW so take it easy on me ;) ... According to ESPN insider rumor central (I don't have the subscription so I can't read the whole article), the Wild may sign Dan Hamhuis as an unrestricted free agent. That's pretty interesting since we don't have any spots open on defense and have a bunch of d-men prospects in Houston. The only way I see the Wild signing Hamhuis (barring a trade), is if Hnidy is not resigned and Nate Prosser ends up starting the season
