The Wild acquired Marek Zidlicky from the Predators for a 2009 second round pick and Ryan Jones.

Zidlicky is a great power play guy. He had 25 of his 43 points last season on the power play. He should be the final blueliner we add this offseason because I don't know how Maxim Noreau will fit in now with the additions of Bergeron and Zidlicky, and Reitz stepping up to play and the return of Foster. Oh well, can't have to much talent patrolling the D-zone. Hopefully this will be a good sign and we go out to get more front line talent and resign some of our own (Gabby and PMB!)

For those who don't know, Jones is 24 and just finished his senior season at Miami of Ohio. He had 97 points in his last 84 games.
