I decided to run a season simulation with the Wild in Eastside Hockey Manager to see what happens.
I ran a simulation with the Minnesota Wild using a 2016-17 on Eastside Hockey Manager, also refered to as EHM. Eastside Hockey Manager is a game developed by Sports Interactive and published by Sega released on December 1st 2015 (but it was available on Early Access before that). The game is currently officially available only for PC but can also be played on a Mac, according to The Blue Line forums. The game is unlicensed so it does not include real players but the game supports databases made by fans and communities which allows for up to date rosters and even retro rosters to be available.
