Minnesota Wild coach John Hynes shocked many by announcing on Friday that he would start rookie goaltender Jesper Wallstedt in Game 1 of the first-round series against the Dallas Stars on Saturday.It’s a bold move to play Wallstedt, who will make his playoff debut, over Filip Gustavsson, who has been entrenched as Minnesota’s starter for years. It carries risk, but it also makes sense — not just because Wallstedt has outperformed Gustavsson down the stretch, but because his specific strengths as a goalie are a better matchup for how the Stars attack.Advertisement
