Hester Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Pitt is the type of team that you can not let come flying into your zone.Step up at the blue line on them and with good back checking you have a chance at beating them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnAFly Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 We look terrible. Just throwing pucks away left and right. Yeo better snap these guys back to reality. Just got their 3rd icing in less than 3 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainMusky Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Buck the difference is he actually can smell hockey when it crosses his nose. You wouldn't know hockey if it hit you smack in the face. Yes Prosser is sketchy and Dumba is about giving me a heart attack.Doesn't help Lapanta cannot figure out its "midst" of a change not "mist" of a change.

CaptainMusky Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Anyone see what happened to Parise ? I sure hope its not a non injury related situation IE his dad. I know he's not doing well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishing tech Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I thought they said lower body. Which could mean headache to in grown toe nail the way they try and hide injuries. It is sad about J.P. I still have an autographed puck I got from him when I was a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmitty3 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 We need Spurgeon back, Prosser looked awful. I'd take Ballard over him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnAFly Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Reports are that two checks may have caught Parise. One from Burtuzzo early and one from Comeau late. The Comeau was a nasty crosscheck which was called. The Prosser comment was directly related to him passing to the other team twice in the first period. Not like a deflect pass or a pressured , failed dump or anything. Literally, he looked the guy in the eye, and passed it to him. Tape to tape...just like he can't do to our team. Maybe he got caught up staring at Crosby. I don't know.That first period was really tough to watch. We got a little pressured and clearly it got to us. We started just firing pucks up ice every chance we got to get out of our zone. Even when guys had 10ft around them with no pressure, they would just flip the puck out to the Pen's D men. Brodin is playing hurt (hand, maybe hands)Spurgeon needs to come backParise is now hurt, but we'll see how bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainMusky Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 From the drop of the puck I could tell last night wasnt going to end well. They were very slow, both teams. It was painful to watch. I still had a glimmer of hope when they pumped that one in there, but it just wasnt in the cards. Well, now they have the bad taste in their mouth of losing at home. No more home losses!Prosser was bad. I think Folin played relatively well. Dumba is still scaring the heck out of me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnAFly Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 The nice thing about Dumba is that he is 19 and seems to a good play for each of is scary plays. If he continues to develop, he will be a solid offensive defenseman kind of like Burns was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I have not lost faith in him yet, but I dont remember getting this nervous about Brodin when he was a rookie. Maybe just spoiled. :-)I have to remember that Folin is 23 too so he is much more seasoned. He also doesnt take chances like Dumba more of a stay at home style. Though he did rush the puck once so that was nice to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishing tech Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Funny you make the comparison to Burns. I was think the same thing the way he jumps up into the rush. You see more of his offensive side versus good D play which will come with experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PierBridge Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Disappointing loss last night but fun none the less being there!A couple questions not having my DVR with me at the game.How did the pens 2nd goal go in ?... I hate bad angle goals.And what was the deal on the almost wild goal that was reviewed? Was it in, whistled early or interference of some kind? I havent had time to watch the replay.

BuckSutherland Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Quote:Minnesota Wild forward Zach Parise is not traveling with the team on their three-game road trip, head coach Mike Yeo said Wednesday.Parise suffered an undisclosed upper body injury in Tuesday’s 4-1 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins, where the Wild outshot the opposition 34-22. Parise did not play in the third period and is expected to meet with doctors Wednesday, Yeo said.My favorite part of the game was the almost fight in the third. Looked like Brodziak could use a little aiming fluid. Seemed to give them some spark, but they were completely shut down from getting to the net the other 50 mins. Too much passing with this dismal power play. Start shooting the puck and get some rebounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10,000 Casts Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I go back and forth on whether or not they should take more shots or be more patient, when they take a lot of shots they put them right on the goalies chest and we never seem to get the rebounds. We're suppose to have more skill now with Vanek, Pomminville, Nino etc. With the way we can move the puck, I say cycle on 5-5 and pass more on the PP and wait for quality chances.

fishing tech Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I like the puck movement on the PP, but if it isn't working sometimes changing it up by shoot and crash will help. Force the other team to keep 3 below the dots to help protect the net and then that will/should open the points for better shot ops and tips.Thoughts?

bbfenatic Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 Wondering if we will get to see Vanek up with Granlund and Pommers? Sounds like that is the plan. What a bummer, pretty heavy schedule in the near term and Zach is our leader...time for others to step up!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnAFly Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Per Russo: "Parise has a concussion, says Yeo."That sucks...a lot.According to Yeo, yes, Vanek-Granny-Pommer will be the 1st line. VanGranVille. Sounds Dutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
