Wild Rumors: 3 Potential Landing Spots for Filip Gustavsson


With Marc-Andre Fleury signed to an extension and Jesper Wallstedt looking ready for the NHL, there has been plenty of speculation about Filip Gustavsson's future with the Minnesota Wild. If the Wild elect to shop him, these three teams could certainly be in the mix for his services. 

Los Angeles Kings: The Los Angeles Kings are a team to watch when it comes to Gustavsson. There's no question that they should add at least one goalie this offseason. Cam Talbot, a pending UFA, has been good this campaign. If they re-sign him, they could still look to add Gustavsson, as they would form a great tandem.

Philadelphia Flyers: The Philadelphia Flyers could look to add another goalie this offseason. It is clear that it's an area on their roster that needs improvement, and this is especially so if they hope to take another step forward in 2023-24. Gustavsson would give them a proven option and could work very well with Ivan Fedotov. 

San Jose Sharks: The San Jose Sharks may be rebuilding, but there's no question that they should not be against adding to their goaltending. Gustavsson is still young enough that he could become a long-term part of their plans if acquired.
