The Minnesota Wild made qualifying offers to seven players before the NHL draft's second round began Saturday.
Defenseman and former first-round pick Matt Dumba headlines the group after a career-best 26-point campaign last season, while goaltender Darcy Kuemper was also qualified despite being the subject of trade rumors.
Forwards Jason Zucker, Zac Dalpe, Jordan Schroeder, and Tyler Graovac, and defenseman Zach Palmquist were also qualified.
Meanwhile, the Wild announced five players who did not receive qualifying offers: goaltender Brody Hoffman and forwards Brett Bulmer, Raphael Bussieres, Jared Knight, and Scott Sabourin.
