Freddy Gaudreau had just gotten off the ice Thursday morning after an offseason skills practice in Rock Forest, Quebec, when he realized something was up. Gaudreau, 32, checked his phone and saw a missed text message from Minnesota Wild president of hockey operations and general manager Bill Guerin. “You kind of know if the GM says, ‘Call me please,’ it’s something more than just, ‘How’s your day?” Gaudreau said. Gaudreau has been in the league long enough to sense what was coming next.

ST. PAUL, Minn. — A Brinks truck pulled up to Minnesota Wild headquarters around 11:30 a.m. Thursday. Two armed men walked in, one holding a bag of cash.

This year's NHL Scouting Combine was different for Minnesota Wild director of amateur scouting Judd Brackett. The Wild don't have a first-round pick (thanks to the David Jiricek trade), nor did they have a third-rounder. So there weren't nearly as many interviews in Buffalo as they focused on who they might take as their second-rounder (No. 52). "It's certainly harder to predict," Brackett said on the "Fellowship of the Rink" podcast.
