Minnesota Wild

Minnesota only has $10.5 million in cap space, but still might look to improve their roster. Their UFAs consist of wingers Matt Cullen, Daniel Winnik, and Gabriel Kurtis.
Their RFAs are winger Jason Zucker, as well as d-men Nick Seeler and Matt Dumba. It is unclear what Minnesota will do, as they have a somewhat steady lineup. If they sign anyone at all, chances are it would probably be a 3rd or 4th liner for a small deal.
