Q: What does the Minnesota Wild have in common with a donut?

A: Neither has a center.

OK, it’s not that bad for the Wild because Joel Eriksson Ek is a solid one.

But, still some fans might be frustrated at the fact that the Wild have not traded for Buffalo’s Jack Eichel or landed a top-end center in the offseason so far.

And there’s a chance it doesn’t happen at all.
