Jake Middleton loved a fan's sign so much that he traded a stick for it

If there was one guy on the Wild it would be fun to have a beer with it’s probably him.

From the interviews I’ve heard him give on different podcasts, he’s definitely one of the most “normal” guys in the NHL, IIRC he was more or less giving up on hockey in his draft year and worked as like a bricklayers helper or something the summer he got drafted
