Exciting game last night. It was good to see the power play working for a change. I never would have thought we would put the hurt on the Canucks like that. After going up 6-1 in the 2nd I thought things were going to really get out of hand. Rypien grabbing that fan was crazy and I'm curious what the fines/suspension will be. Unless the fan said something absolutely malicious I didn't see him do anything other than a sarcastic clap.

Overall, good confidence booster for the wild and fans alike. Let's hope the momentum can carry forward into Thursdays game. I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing these two teams play on Friday in Vancouver!

I can believe no one has commented on the fight last night...you know the one between the Canuck's Rypien and the WILD FAN!!!

Really, not much of a fight since the fan was simply clapping while Rypien decided to tried to grab him. I'm guessing 20 game suspension.

Great response by the Wild. The Clutterbuck/Latendress/Havlat? goal was really nice.

I don't think that Rypien will be suited up on Friday, as he'll likely be suspended for the rematch. I hope that the Wild make it up to the fan though, since they removed him from his seat for no reason. The kid should get a set of free tickets to another upcoming game.

What was up with Luongo allowing six goals? I'll take them any day but that was pretty out of character.

They just moved them down to on the glass seats. They showed them on TV during the 3rd period, so they never got kicked out.

Luongo is terrible at the X, he usually gets pulled after a period or 2. I was at the Vancouver game 2 years ago when we beat them 5-1 and there were tons of fights. Should be a good game up there.

I went out and bought another TV specifically for that reason. I was getting quite a few complaints about the amount of hockey that was on...now she gets to watch teen mom (MTV is by far the worst channel out there), I get my hockey.

Read the latest article and following blog on the Trib...hilarious! The guy is calling it assult and consequently getting roasted for seeking legal representation.

Here's my favorite so far:

"My grandma tugs harder on my shirt when she says hello."

Another says he should be allowed to flog Rypien for 5 minutes with a dead carp.

Funny stuff, definitely a good read!

I agree. No need for that. He received his 15 minutes of fame, Rypien is suspended. What more does this guy want? It's funny how a lot of people initially were behind this guy (me included) but now with him seeking legal representation nobody wants anything to do with him.

"Don't none of you homos touch me or my stuff. You touch me...I'll kill you. You touch my stuff...I'll kill you."

All comedy aside, I am definitely in favor of more prisons, just NIMBY!

Where in the world does anyone think it is ok for someone to get physical with someone under the guise of "in the heat of the moment" or under an excuse of anger?

I say...Gas Chamber for the offender.

But then again, I do also believe in "ye without sin, cast the first stone".

Feel the same way, gotta love when people lawyer up over nothing.

Another good showing last night. We've always seemed to struggle at Edmonton so it's good to pull one off. Power play was great, what do we have 12-13 pp goals now? I know it's still early but putting pucks in the net has always been an issue so it's good to see things clicking. Penalty kill looked good stopping 8/10, not too shabby. This year it seems like positioning on both PP and PK seems to be much more thought out. Last year it seemed we would run around a lot more and really struggled staying organized. Backstrom had a strong game with 34ish saves.

Tonight's gonna be a good one to watch!

It was good to see them pull out a win in Edmonton, but 10 penalties on the first night of a back to back is a killer.

I'm traveling for work so I didn't get to see the game against the Canucks since they for some reason don't broadcast Wild games in Asia...who knew! But, reading the article on the STrib on it, it didn't sound too good. Sounded like we were gassed from the start.

Touche wink

Well, the Wild go up against LA tomorrow. I'm guessing they'll have a better showing than the Vancouver game. Call it optimism, but things might be better for us than they previously looked. If Richards can inspire the type of play we saw against the Canucks (the first time around) in the guys all season, we will be a playoff team. Not a contendor, but a playoff team. I guess I'll just have to read the game notes.

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
