As of late, the Minnesota Wild have really hit on their college free agent acquisitions. Just last season it was Sammy Walker, who has turned into an electric winger that is one of AHL Iowa’s leading scorers and has made his NHL debut already; and less recently, they got forwards like Mitchell Chaffee and Brandon Duhaime in the process.
So when they are interested in a guy, it seems to be a decent bet that he can at least be a solid contributor in a year or two.
Well, according to The Athletic, the Wild are interested in forward Jason Polin our of Western Michigan.
