The Wild opened training camp with few open spots on the professional roster and a healthy amount of talent that could arguably be better than some of the players who are expected to make the pro team. The list includes Professional Tryout Drew Stafford and prospects Will Bitten, Connor Dewar, Brandon Duhaime, Matvey Guskov, Ivan Lodnia, Dmitry Sokolov, Nico Sturm, Colton Beck, Gabriel Dumont, Luke Johnson, Hunter Warner, Louie Belpedio, Carson Soucy, Mike Liambas, Gerald Mayhew, Mitch McLain, Brennan Menell, Mat Robson, Kaapo Kähkönen, and finally journeyman Matt Bartkowski. Most would get their papers and assignments to the minor leagues; one would make the roster as a beneficiary of an injury during training camp, but certainly earned the callup.
