Episode Synopsis

The Minnesota Wild's struggles continue, with three key issues plaguing their performance: poor net-front presence, excessive turnovers, and lackluster home-ice advantage. The Wild rank 5th in high-danger chances allowed and 21st in chances created, resulting in a -20 differential. Defensively, they've surrendered 9 high-danger goals in 10 games, including 4 to the San Jose Sharks. Turnovers are another concern, with 75% occurring in the defensive zone. Host Seth Toupal breaks down these troubling trends, highlighting how they've worsened over recent seasons. The Wild's home record has declined since their stellar 31-8-2 performance in 2021-2022, with particular issues when trailing early. Can the Wild address these fundamental problems and turn their season around? Explore this in-depth analysis of the Minnesota Wild's early-season woes and what it means for their NHL playoff hopes.Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: Locked On WildFollow/Subscribe Anywhere: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnWildFollow Locked On NHL: linktr.ee/lockedonNHLJoin our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/ZAB6yyckHave a Question for the Show or a Topic you want Covered?
