The Minnesota Wild continue stocking up on wingers after selecting Michael “Mikey” Milne from the Winnipeg Ice of the WHL with the 89th overall pick.
Starting to see some overagers go. Mikey Milne selected 89th overall by Minnesota. Had him 96th on my list. He had 81 points in 68 games this season and plays with a lot of energy. Had to wait a long time for this, but deserved selection.

At 19 years old — turning 20 on September 21 — Milne is one of the more senior players available in the draft but used his hustle and effort to tally 81 points in 68 games in his third season with the Winnipeg Ice.
