Play-In Report Card: Luke Kunin set himself apart from Wild’s young core

Out of the young talent on the Minnesota Wild’s roster in the qualifying round, Luke Kunin was arguably the best of the bunch. Now, Joel Eriksson Ek continued to demonstrate his stellar defensive play, but Kunin was electric playing against the Vancouver Canucks. From goals to physicality, Kunin brought it all.

Though he may not have won over the analytics community just yet, he raised eyebrows of various viewers outside of Minnesota, and of course his Wisconsin Badger fans. Kunin contributed in various ways, and it helped elevated his value.
