Wild GM confident in team's playoff potential against Dallas Stars.
Minnesota Wild General Manager Bill Guerin is confident in his team's ability to advance past the first round of the playoffs for the first time since 2015, despite missing key players due to injury. Guerin believes this year's team is better than last year's, with a stronger focus on details, structure, and discipline. The Wild will face either Dallas or Colorado in the first round, and Guerin is proud of the decisions he's made to field a competitive team while operating with a smaller salary cap than other franchises.
