The Wild goaltending situation

[Fel 96]

With Josh Harding being injured tonight. The Wild now have 3 out their 4 goalies injured.

I have no idea what's gonna happen till next game but it will be interesting to follow.

#mnwild is in serious trouble now; Kuemper is hurt, and Dennis Endras is in Finland...who will back up Hackett on Sunday?

#mnwild would only be able to sign goalie on AHL deal or goalie in Europe who won't make playoffs/won't play in world championships

is he still eligible or did he ruin it by signing a try-out contract?

Does Russo mean with Harding injured, who will back up Hackett on Sunday?

[forthewild]

my guess if its not serious they will sign someone to ATO, if its serious Endras is coming back which will piss of Granlund and he won't sign with us. this will then piss off Parise and Suter and they will walk from us too, thus prompting Koivu to demand and get a trade only to turn into a 100g scoring center for the other team. The departure of koivu, loss of granlund, parise, suter will then cause the events to be set for 2012 end of the world.... yes thats right koivu nets a 100g before december

Harding has a lower body injury, Yeo said; he doesn't know how bad it is, but #mnwild are looking for a goalie.

Pretty sure it was a typo. I edited the Twitter quote to avoid the confusion.

What about.....

[ShutDownDefense]

Can't they just recall Kuemper and sign a few goalies to AHL tryout contracts until Backs and Hards are good to go again?

Honestly, at this point our goaltending wouldn't matter.

Has Goldberg moved back to Philly yet?

[Fel 96]

...the Wild could be looking for another 50-year-old goalie for Sunday like Paul Deutsch. Fletcher wasn’t even sure if the Wild would be allowed to sign him again. Remember, you can’t be a pro to get on an amateur tryout, meaning goalie coach Bob Mason is out, as well as assistant to the GM and Houston GM Jim Mill.
Shep Harder, the Wild’s director of hockey administration, was a stud goalie at Blake back in the day (hopefully you read my feature on him in Jan. 2010), but Fletcher said he’s a “workers compensation case waiting to happen.”
The other option is to sign a goalie on a minor-league contract. Fletcher’s on it, Yeo said.

I'll take Julie the Cat any day of the week.

[Engebretson]

Can we bring back Manny Fernandez to re-live his glory days?

[DG]

How about the man from the Dark Side?

[Al Lagoon]

If I were Hackett, I'd watch my back.

[thestonedkoala]

Screw it. Dress Foster or Falk or someone.

Put in a rookie, tank and draft Yakupov.

We are putting in a rookie; Matt Hackett. And no Columbus is way ahead of us in the draft. We would have to win the lottery.
