Could Hunter Haight Be the Wild’s Unexpected Star This Season?
On Sunday those spots were given to Haight. He dropped to the third line and went 2-for-8 on the face-off dot. Haight went 4-for-6 on the dot and had 15 minutes and 45 seconds of ice time.
“Yeah, he’s put himself in a position to continue to compete for a spot,” Hynes said of Haight after the game.
Nico Sturm was signed this offseason to be the Wild’s fourth line center but has now missed some time in camp due to an upper-body injury. His status remains unclear if he will be ready to start the season.
