Rumor Roundup: Senators searching for offense, Wild eye Ward | The Hockey News
This is just a rumor article but I think it’s an interesting discussion point. If the Wild DO get Cam Ward, will that help them make the playoffs? Their goaltending has been atrocious, but would a change between the pipes be enough? Is Ward still good enough to help them save their season? I don’t think he’s a good long term option but at this point, it’s worth a shot. Missing the playoffs would be a major step back for the Wild as a franchise.
