The Minnesota Wild have spent the better part of the last month “experimenting” with their lineup. Head Coach Bruce Boudreau in concert with GM Chuck Fletcher have made roster and lineup moves to see what exactly they have from a top down perspective in the Wild organization. With a tough summer ahead, and the March 1st trade deadline even closer, the Wild have been looking for game results to guide them on their looming player decisions.
The main focus of the Wild’s evaluation was to see exactly if some of their younger players who looked on the cusp of being ready for NHL action were indeed ready for NHL action.
