ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - It was a long wait for the Minnesota Wild, but the club amassed six picks on the second day of the NHL draft.
The team's first selection came in the third round Saturday when the Wild chose right wing Ivan Lodnia with the 85th overall pick. The 17-year-old Lodnia, of Los Angeles, spent the last two seasons with the Erie Otters, where he totaled 96 points in 128 games.
