The Wild released their official team guide for 22/23 season, including official player heights and weights. These differ from the heights/weights posted on their official site, as well as other popular sites. I've emboldened the significant differences between the team guide and CF:

==== NHLers ====
Calen Addison is 5'11" 176 lbs
Matthew Boldy is 6'2" 210 lbs
Connor Dewar is 5'10" 185 lbs
Jonas Brodin is 6'2" 194 lbs
Brandon Duhaime is 6'2" 203 lbs
Joel Eriksson Ek is 6'3" 206 lbs
Alex Goligoski is 5'11" 177 lbs
Ryan Hartman is 6' 198 lbs
Kirill Kaprizov is 5'11" 198 lbs
Jacob Middleton is 6'3" 220 lbs
Jon Merrill is 6'3" 207 lbs
Mason Shaw is 5'10" 183 lbs
Frederick Gaudreau is 6' 187 lbs
Filip Gustavsson is 6'3" 194 lbs
Sam Steel is 5'11" 182 lbs
Mats Zuccarello is 5'8" 182 lbs

==== AHLers/Prospects ====

Height and weight for hockey are mostly just ballpark figures. They really only matter for NHL purposes in the cases where players need a longer stick exemption.

Hockey is nothing like the NHL combine where everything except the size of a player's dong is measured and published.

Thanks for the insight! fwiw, to put this in context, there's a mega thread to correct player heights & weights. I posted this in the forum, what are your thoughts onto it's accuracy?
