Wilderness Walk: Wild held players-only meeting

In response to the 6-4 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night, the Wild held a quick players-only meeting immediately after the game and while they won’t say specifically what was mentioned, you can kind of assume what was said by a bunch of players that suffered their third consecutive loss.

#mnwild held a short players only meeting: "We're tired of losing," said Jon Merrill

Wild need to find identity of winning tight games: "We don't have the firepower that we thought we did," said Marcus Foligno— Michael Russo (@RussoHockey) November 18, 2022

Yeah, I mean, there are certainly ways to not lose last night’s game, such as: Not taking five penalties, not being easy in the neutral zone, actually scoring on the power play, not relying on Joel Eriksson Ek to score half your goals.
