There finally came a time, just recently, when Devan Dubnyk sat down, took a deep breath, scratched his head and wondered: "What just happened?"
It had been a whirlwind since he joined the Wild on Jan. 15 and almost singlehandedly rescued the team from oblivion. Nothing but commotion since he won the Masterton Trophy in late June and then signed a six-year, $26 million contract shortly after. A vortex of details as he and his wife Jennifer prepare for the birth of their second child.
And then, at last, he began to relax.
"It took me a little time to wind down," Dubnyk said from his summer residence in Kelowna, British Columbia.
