[The Athletic] Which NHL teams need upgrades at wing? Ranking all 32 teams by current quality

Wild got the best wingers in the league LFG
H/t to u/PaxDragoon
Seeing us, a non-playoff team, right above the two cup contenders, makes the fear that we’re wasting Kap’s prime so much more real.
Wild top 6 when healthy is top 10. The drop off after that is staggering. Our 3rd line is either all banged up or just disappears and our 4th line provides nothing.
The Panthers have an excellent bottom 6 and Edmontons came through when needed during their run.
We really do have some great wings. Bolds and Kirill, obviously, but when the other guys are clicking they really are a force. Knocking on wood for health this year
I don’t think the Wild have the best wingers in the NHL. I would probably rank them closer to #10.
