Some of you might have missed a big piece of Minnesota Wild news yesterday. The AHL named Iowa Wild winger Teemu Pulkkinen the AHL Player of the Week after putting up a week that saw him post 5 goals (2 game winners) and 2 assists in 4 games. That’s an impressive stretch to be sure and one that rocketed him into the team lead for goals and tied him for the team lead in points with Jordan Schroeder.
And to put all of this into perspective Pulkkinen has done this with only 13 games played out of Iowa’s 21 games played.
