DES MOINES, Iowa - The best news to come out of the AHL end of the Wild organization these past few weeks has to be the call-up of Carson Soucy, making his NHL debut last night and a well-deserved one at that. The only ire that I have towards the move is that I won’t be able to see him play anymore, but the philosophy around here is that if I never see these guys back in Des Moines, it’s a good thing.
The Wild are all but mathematically eliminated from the postseason, as the most recent playoff primer has Iowa’s magic number at 20 points with six games remaining on their schedule.
