Jesper Wallstedt had a lot to prove coming into this season, and he might have just sorted it out within the first two appearances in a Minnesota Wild sweater. A massive asterisk over any statement at this time of year — since it is the preseason — but a 19-year-old goaltender just showing up, after putting in a below-average performance on Sunday during a half-game stint against the Colorado Avalanche, and taking over a full 60 minutes to nullify a team’s offense, is incredibly impressive.
He just oozes this coolness that everybody wants in their goaltender.
