The Wild have money to spend this offseason on free agents, but an influx of youth from within is still a go. Jesper Wallstedt is moving up the goaltending depth chart now that Marc-Andre Fleury is retired, and defenseman David Jiricek will have a spot on the team, President of Hockey Operations Bill Guerin said.

The reality that he's retired didn't dawn on Marc-Andre Fleury during one last curtain call at Xcel Energy Center after the Wild were eliminated from the playoffs to officially end the goaltender's NHL career. He waved to the crowd Thursday night and then ducked off ice, Fleury not wanting to get emotional and prolong his final farewell after a season full of goodbyes. On the drive home, he thought about how lucky he was to play so long and to make his childhood dream come true.
