Wilderness Walk: Catching Breath

Nearly 48 hours have passed since owner Craig Leopold shocked the hockey world (if not the members of his front office) by terminating general manager Paul Fenton.

And now that the dust has settled, fans, Wild players and NHL media all have one question: what now?

Speculation abounds as to who the Wild will tap next. And with roughly a month and a half until training camp, it’s imperative they make their decision fast. Will it be Hextall? Fitzgerald? Zito? Chiarelli? Guerin? Someone totally off the radar? Time will tell.

Plenty of Fenton takes abound in the walk, along with other NHL and NWHL news and notes.
