Gaborik’s Problem
The feelings between Marian Gaborik and the Minnesota Wild Staff are tense to say the least. While his play on the ice is nothing short of fantastic, that point is now irrelevant. His severe groin injury, that was supposed to keep him from a substantial amount of ice time, has now developed into a problem that requires surgery and more time off the ice. Not only will this hinder the Gaborik’s immediate success, it will also affect the his future, seeing as how he will become a free agent at the end of the season, and most teams will balk at an injury prone player. This is all after he snubbed the $8 million for 1 year deal that the Wild previously offered him.
