All the other guys are Fletch trades. All the DR junk is gone now from what I can see.

Yep I was mostly commenting on how active Fletcher has been, it can sometimes be a shock to the system of MN fans who experienced all those years with DR.

Should be an interesting game tonight, Sens just won 5 in a row including wins over LA, SJ & the Ducks. They are a little ways out of the playoffs right now but have some games in hand so they likely bring it tonight.

I believe we got Coyle from the Sharks in the Burns trade.

Interesting...Russo is reporting both Fletch and Yeo are now admitting that up till the recent trades the Wild did have a size toughness problem and were easily bullied around....glad they finally addressed that issue!

You guy's remember Kanopka's first shift wearing a wild jersey,if my memory is right he tangled with mclown not much into the game. I'm not saying Stewart needs to go right away on Sunday but he's going to have to put aside skating in the past with the clown. I scored some tics to Sundays game a while back, should be fun.

Good game and win tonight. #1 star of the game had to be the iron. That sequence of 3 straight was crazy.
Wasn't it fitting that the Senator player who hit 2 pipes on that one shift, hit the pipe in the shootout?

Not a pretty win, but great game by Dumba. He is really getting into the play and making some nice plays.

Stewart had a nice assist so that is good to see. It will be fun to watch that line develop some chemistry.

That Parise line is really slumping right now. I have said if for quite a few games, but it is really unlike them to be held scoreless this long.

Grandlund has been good lately, I think 7 points in the past 6 games but Pommers and Parise have been quiet.

Loving Dumba more and more, kid has taken a big step this year.

Not too worried about Parise or Pom...they'll produce..just not happening right now..depth is carrying us.

As for Dumba...saw that coming...the kid is an O-threat with ability to see the play develop ahead of him...big time accurate shot, and fast enough to recover when he finds himself out of position (which at this point is a little too often IMO) but I'll take the O production and let Dubs save his behind for now wink

The 4th line IMO is playing well and scoring because they shoot and crash. When the other lines figure that out we will be scoring 4 goals per game. How many times does a player for the Wild pass when they have the puck in the slot or have a clear lane to the net? Very frustrating to watch especially in close games.

Agreed. He looks like he's two moves ahead of everyone in a chess match where he knows the outcome. He's really come on strong of late! For one sequence in the third last night I think he passed to himself and then passed to himself again, lol. He's pretty slick with the stick.

I keep wondering if Duubs is going to have a let down game and come back to earth but it hasn't happened yet. If I was a goalie in the NHL, I'd want to play for the wild. They just make goalies shine. I can't think of the last time Duubs has been yard saled.

Back to back coming up with 3 night games in 4 days. Throw in the travel and I'm wondering if they are considering resting Dubs for the Carolina game. Carolina is .500 in their last 10. They gotta be polishing up their golf clubs right about now.

I suppose Keumps is rusty as %#$! having not played in near forever, so I guess there's our answer.

If we win tonight resting Dubs a period or two before Kumeper gets pulled isn't a bad idea. I think I am kidding but I honestly don't know right now. I'd almost feel more secure with Curry as out backup ahead of the K/B tandem.

Vanek, Coyle and the new guys have been quiet lately. wink

Schroeder is too good to be riding the pine, if Nino can play tomorrow it might be time to slide Haula to center and park Brodz despite his solid play.

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
