ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) Marcus Foligno has left the leap behind in Buffalo.
That doesn’t mean his offensive production can’t or won’t continue to rise in Minnesota.
Coming off a career-high 13 goals for the Sabres last season, the 25-year-old was acquired by the Wild to bring some needed grit and strength to the left wing position on the third or fourth line. He’s capable of putting the puck in the net, too, though he has so far been more of a sporadic scorer in the NHL.
”Definitely, 20 goals is something I envision myself to reach, and I hope to do that in a Wild jersey,” Foligno said.
