With the production Rem Pitlick had in his short career with the Minnesota Wild, it was a foregone conclusion that some NHL team would give him a look after being placed on waivers yesterday.
In October, the former Minnesota Golden Gopher was initially claimed off waivers by the Wild from the Nashville Predators and was a productive member of the team when in the lineup. With six goals and 11 points in 20 contests, Pitlick scored all Wild rookies and was 11th amongst rookie forwards league-wide. Impressively, his P/60 (Points per 60 minutes 5v5) led all rookies but is buoyed by a sky-high — and unsustainable — 46.
