For the second time in franchise history, the Wild took two players in the first round of the NHL Draft. We recorded from Tom’s apartment to discuss it all! Topics include:
- What brewery we’d run our Draft War Rooms from
- The Wild trade up to select Jesper Wallstedt at Pick 20
- Judd Brackett continues being aggressive at the draft table
- Did having an extra pick make drafting a first-round goalie less risky?
- Was Wallstedt a pick for team need, or was he the best player available?
- Wild draft defenseman Carson Lambos at Pick 26
- Lambos got dragged down by a fake season
- Do these two players fit into the Wild’s post-buyout plans?
- Wild sit out a busy trade day
- What we want to see on Day 2
- Wild pay tribute to Tom Kurvers
