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.

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 back

Parise is now hurt, but we'll see how bad.

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.

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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
