John Hynes' Big Gamble Pays off in Overtime!

Locked On Wild - Your Daily Minnesota Wild Podcast

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, Alex Micheletti joins to recap a thrilling OT win for the Wild against Nashville that featured the biggest gamble of the season by John Hynes. We break down the move, including the risk the Wild took by going empty net in overtime, and why it signaled that John Hynes isn't messing around despite long odds for a playoff spot. We recap big performances by Kirill Kaprizov, Matt Boldy and Joel Eriksson Ek and some support from the likes of Ryan Hartman. We discuss Marc-Andre Fleury's performance and why he is deserving of more starts down the stretch. We also discuss the inevitable debut of Marat Khusnutdinov this week, and why it shouldn't be Adam Beckman coming out of the lineup when he debuts.
