With his plate overflowing, it'd be easy for Doug Risebrough to feel weighed down.
Think about the Wild general manager's offseason to-do list:
- Deal with 10 unrestricted free agents, the most significant being Brian Rolston and Pavol Demitra.
- Encourage Jacques Lemaire to continue coaching.
- Gauge Marian Gaborik's willingness to sign a long-term extension.
- Decide what to do with Pierre-Marc Bouchard, who is one year from becoming an unrestricted free agent.
