After a historic regular season yielded nothing in the way of postseason success, the Minnesota Wild will go about trying to upgrade its roster in an effort to make another run at its first Stanley Cup in year two of the Bruce Boudreau era.

It promises to be a busy summer not just for the Wild, but for the entire NHL as the League welcomes its 31st team to the fold, the Vegas Golden Knights. Between the Expansion Draft, potential trades and the NHL Draft, it could be a whirlwind summer even before free agency opens on July 1.

Here is a look at some of the potential items on Wild general manager Chuck Fletcher's checklist as the offseason commences: Wild.com.
