Lol, with the cap limitations and the prospect of losing several core players as well as this seasons rentals save JoJo, not sure how Billy plans to be even more successful next season… seems like pipe dream speak until this organization is finally out from under the Parise/Suter cap crunch…
Winning a round isn’t enough but they can’t win one round. The Wild have been successful at failure. So win a round before talking about how it’s not enough.
The Wild have overachieved the last two years during the regular season but fell flat in the playoffs. They aren’t likely to overachieve again and making the playoffs isn’t a given. Even if they do it will be nearly impossible to add at the TDL.
They need to play their young players and not worry about making the playoffs next year. Bringing back Reaves is a step back. It’s nice to commit to a warrior like Shaw. But it’s an emotional decision which isn’t something they should be doing while they’re trapped in cap hell. The Wild seem to have issues prioritizing stuff. They seem emotional not cerebral.

Been hearing the same talk from the players and staff for the past 10 years. They should try just keeping their mouths shut and figure a way to get it done. Press pleasing doesn't help anything, just makes them look like incompetent liars.
I think we win the Dallas series with a healthy roster. missing JEE was huge to say the least. I don't think KK was 100% either, or maybe the injury lay-off was enough to throw off his game.
