In this debut feature, Minnesota Wild goalies Filip Gustavsson and Jesper Wallstedt sit down with Kevin Gorg to reflect on their upbringing in Sweden and how hockey culture shaped them into the goaltenders they are today.
Gustavsson and Wallstedt share insights on:
• Sweden’s deep hockey tradition and long winters
• Learning the game on outdoor ice and in hometown youth academies
• Balancing soccer and hockey before committing to goaltending
• The moment each decided to become a full-time goalie
• The players who inspired them — including Henrik Lundqvist
• Family influences and early memories that still motivate them
“In The Net” takes you behind the mask to explore the personalities, development, and mindset of the Wild’s goaltending present and future.
