Star player Mats Zuccarello made his opinion on these first two games very clear in a post-game interview.
The Wild are in a difficult position due to the buyout cap hits of Ryan Suter and Zach Parise. Due to this, they were unable to be active in free agency. The Wild's defensive corps, highlighted by Jared Spurgeon, Matt Dumba and Jonas Brodin need to step up, and goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury needs to be better.
