Which Wild Team will we see this Weekend?

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we start by discussing Joel Eriksson Ek's current numbers compared to Mikko Koivu's throughout his career. We discuss Koivu's longevity, compared to the number of things Eriksson Ek is asked to do for this current Wild team. We debate whether each player would be able to be successful in the other player's era. Eriksson Ek would have done just fine in the early 2000s, but would Koivu be anything higher than a middle six center in this current era of the NHL? We move to the Western Conference playoff picture, with every team in front of the Wild winning last night. We preview both games against Edmonton and Seattle this weekend, and key players to watch for both teams. We discuss the need for the Wild to get another line to step up, and why it's likely with both of these games being "Must Win"
