Koivu will be a good mentor for him.

Agree to a certain extent, the main difference I see is Granland did this while in motion, with pressure behind him. My memory of the Legg goal is he had time behind the net, little to no pressure, and came out on his forehand side. Granlands is more impressive to me to do it while in motion, and on the backhand side. Look forward to seeing him in the NHL!

Actually I am too. That’s how I remember it so vividly; still hurts.

He does need to bulk up, badly in my eyes, seeing how he played against Canada last week. Luckily, you can add size easier than you can teach NHL talent / skills. Will be a great addition to the Wild.

This is long overdue. It might just be the perfect time with all the young talent that we have added. Lets hope we start like last year but this time stay healthy and finish in the playoffs.
