Finding a spot for Daniel Winnik on the Minnesota Wild

The Minnesota Wild announced Tuesday that veteran forward Daniel Winnik would be attending training camp on a professional-try-out contract. Now, I don’t know the goals of either the Wild or Winnik with this PTO, but it surprised me. The Wild already have a quite full forward core under contract and also Marcus Foligno still waiting on a new deal. If you count in Joel Eriksson Ek, the Wild already have their 12 forwards and that’s not including Landon Ferraro or Cal O’Reilly being as a potential 13th forward option.
