Becoming Wild: The Development System

The bright lights and handshakes of a Minnesota Wild prospect's draft day are the culmination of years of hard work. But when those lights fade, that's when the real work both on and off the ice is taken to another level.
In this episode of Becoming Wild--presented by Toyota--go behind the scenes of the Minnesota Wild Development System. Get to know the future of the Wild as they get to know Minnesota at Summer Development Camp. Plus, meet the team of people who tirelessly work to get those prospects to St. Paul and see what kind of work it takes throughout the hockey season to keep them connected to Minnesota.

'The Development System' should be a series on its own. Lotta tid-bits that young players could take from this. Especially the Ness skates.

Pretty funny to see Faber amongst the group of guys, most of whom will likely be sent back to junior.
"We're here to develop you. Except you, Faber. You don't know it yet, but we're going to need you to lead the Wild in ice time, fill in for Spurgeon on the #1 power play unit, and compete with Connor Bedard for the Calder trophy."

What I thought too haha!! Minnesota guy stickin around in minnesota and contributing is awesome to see. Growing up playing with and against faber was electric everytime he hit the ice along with seeing Matt Hendricks, seeing him from playing with my uncle to now a development coach funny to see how the way the world works. #minnesotaStrong

I always love following the journey of the Wild prospects. One thing I have learned is that Minnesota finds solid players and they get guys like Pavel Novak who get terrible news like cancer, beat cancer and fight to make the trip up 35 to St. Paul. They get guys with some amazing character and strength. Pavel, I really hope we see you wear MN Wild green real soon.
