“Can somebody back me up please?” - Devan Dubnyk, probably often.
Free agency opens tomorrow... TOMORROW! Despite Alex Stalock’s strong play at the end of this past season, I still believe that the most pressing need for the Wild this offseason is a solid backup netminder to spell Dubnyk and actually give the team a chance to win on any given night. Nate Condon, Peter Budaj, and Keith Kinkaid all signed extensions with their respective teams to continue playing second fiddle in the goal crease, while Eddie Lack got traded yesterday to the Calgary Flames, and Michael Russo reported that Chad Johnson is probably landing in Buffalo for a second stint.
