Yes, we've reached that part of the hockey year where I struggle to come up with topics to write about. I've had an internal debate about whether or not to post my feelings about this season's edition of The Bachelorette, but thankfully that got scrapped. In lieu of that, here are what I think the Wild's lines look like for the upcoming season:
Brunette-Koivu-Bouchard
Latendresse-Cullen-Havlat
Clutterbuck-Kobasew-Miettinen
Nystrom-Weller-Brodziak (Staubitz alternating)
Zidlicky-Zanon
Burns-Schultz
Barker-Mitchell (*)
(*) Notice I included Willie Mitchell. This is a complete guess based upon the team's need for another veteran player. In his alternate, you could substitute Stoner or maybe even Marco Scandella.
Where's Shep? My gut tells me he'll be waived after training camp.

Sheppard will not be waived. He hasn't done well at all for us, but he was a first round pick that played on the 4th line his whole career in the NHL. No seasoning at all. He should have been in the AHL. With that said, Casey Wellman better be in the AHL this season working with the top two lines. Sheppard will play 4th line for the Wild, as Fletcher will see if he can pull another Pouliot-Latendresse trade.
I think you meant Wellman, not Weller . . .
