Gm Pogo said of the trade:
Its always tough to lose a player you have watched grow into a star but with the emergence of Fleury, Niemi was simply not needed and we decided it was best for both of us to part ways. We wish the best of luck to him in Edmonton!
It was a tough loss for the Wild being swept by the Chicago Blackhawks in the first round but things are looking up! RFA Dany Heatley has been resigned and Romours are the wild are looking for defensive help for the upcoming season
Wild’s Gm Pogo after the slew of trades occurring this season:
After years of disappointing seasons we have made the decision it is time for some changes and we have specially targeted players who have a pedigree of being leaders and players who know how to score.
YOUR Minnesota Wild have made a Trade! We have acquired Michal “Hands” Handzus and Matt Greene along with a 3rd in this upcoming draft for Brad Stuart and Joel Ward!
Did you know Greene is too 5 in +/-?
Meet your Minnesota Wild Captains! For this season newly acquired Shane Doan will be sporting the C on his jersey with long time Wild Dany Heatley and Shea Weber being his assistant Captains!
