There is a God; Wild trade James Sheppard.

Image via WikipediaWow! This summer has turned out to be pretty good for the Minnesota Wild, they have made another note worthy trade, the Minnesota Wild finally unloaded Wild waste of a serviceable uniform James Sheppard. Sheppard once labeled untouchable by former GM buffoon Doug Risebrough has been nothing less than an utter disappointment with the Minnesota Wild. SAN JOSE...

Sharks acquire James Sheppard from Minnesota

For the third time in the last six weeks, the Sharks and Wild made a trade. The Sharks acquired forward James Sheppard for a third round pick in 2013. Sheppard missed the entire 2010-11 season due to a knee injury suffered in an ATV accident last September. Sheppard was the ninth overall pick in the 2006 draft, but he has not panned out. He skipped the minors and went right to the...

The Sharks: Wild, Wild, Wild West?

And then there were three.  Saturday evening, the Sharks acquired a third player from the Minnesota Wild, James Sheppard, in exchange for a 2013 third round pick.  That’s a lot of threes. He was the 9th pick, in the ‘06 draft, age 23… Still more threes. Let’s start with some headlines that have nothing to do with three: From David Pollak: “Summer rerun: Sharks pull...

Shep with major fail. No hockey included this time!

So it appears James Sheppard has taken the easy way out this time. I’m kidding, of course. I was one of the few that actually was going to give him the benefit of the doubt this season. No one can deny Shep can skate. And his physical presence is huge on the ice. And don;t forget the fact he would have possibly had some “real” linemates this season. No Boogaard...

Wild decide to waste a jersey on Sheppard

Props to blog poster Thomas for bringing this to my attention, I must say that I am highly disappointed in the Wild for tendering him a contract. James Sheppard is a first round bust a will never amount to a hill of beans in the NHL. Why? He has had three seasons to prove him self and has done nothing but take up a roster spot on a team starving for offense. For the love of Zeus’s...

Wild in the running for Jokinen?

Apparently the Minnesota Wild are in the running for Olli Jokinen but I can't believe that the Doug Risebrough would be smart enough to pull it off based on some of his past moves and last summer decided that he wouldn't trade James Sheppard for Olli Jokinen. I would like to see him in a Wild uniform he would look good on the same line as Mikko Koivu, especially if Gabby...
