Wild trim roster
09/27/2011
By Staff Reports
Minnesota moves 17 players
St. Paul, Mn-The Minnesota Wild trimmed, no they shaved their roster from 45 players to 28 on Sunday in an effort to focus in on their every day lineup. It was a move designed to give the remaining three pre-season games to the presumed regulars on the roster.
Five players from the remaining 28 will need to be cut from the current roster. The Wild are 3-1 in the pre-season and the top line of Mikko Koivu, Dany Heatley, and Devin Setoguchi have only appeared in one of the team's four pre-season contests.
Wild General Manager Chuck Fletcher announced on Sunday that his club reassigned 9 players to the Houston Aeros of the American Hockey Leauge (AHL). They were forwards Kris Foucault, David McIntyre, Carson McMillan, Jarod Palmer, and Chad Rau. Defensemen moved to Houston included Tyler Cuma, Chay Genoway.
Clearing way in the crease, the Wild sent a pair of goalies to their AHL club as Matt Hackett and Darcy Kuemper were reassigned. The moved gives Wild goalies Niklas Backstrom and Josh Harding plenty of time to play the rest of the way for the pre-season as they prepare for the season opener on Saturday, October 8th at the Xcel energy Center.
Other moves included placing 5 players on waivers with the intention to reassign them to Houston on Tuesday September 27th should they clear waivers. Forwards Jon DiSalvatore, Warren Peters, Jed Ortmeyer and Jeff Taffe were joined by defenseman Jeff Penner and goalie Dennis Endras.
A pair of players on tryouts with the Wild were released in defenseman Jordan Hendry and Kris Fredheim.
Minnesota is back in action Tuesday night, September 27th, at the Xcel Energy Center as they play host to the St. Louis Blues. The Wild shutout the Blues 1-0 in their previous exhibition game last week in St. Louis.
