Well then maybe they should WIN then.

Then maybe everyone will be happy. sheeeesh

If they win....."Oh boy they played good"

If they lose....."They were off their game" or "What a poor showing" or "The Wild played terrible"

There are times, believe it or not, that the Wild play well and still lose. Also they can play poorly and win.

Don't get me wrong. Winning is winning and that's what matters.

Can we get a win tonight to stop this bleeding please?

I think that JL and DR know a lot more about hockey than any of the 2nd guessers on here.

I hope you are right about that, but it is obvious that something is missing from the team. Something that is keeping them from being a strong finisher. Maybe this year isn't the Wild's year it would just be nice to see them spend a little more of the gate on a piece to the puzzle that will allow the team to finish strong. We are all fans and I don't think any of us are going to quit rooting for the Wild, we just want to be rooting for them in June when the Twins are fighting their way out of the cellar and the Vikings are bailing another player out of jail.

I agree 100% with your statement.

Tonight, they played a good game, not a great game, and found a way to win, barely!

I really wish Gabby could of scored on his breakaways!

Yea I think he comes in to fast once he gets the separation. He needs to slow down so he can give the goalie a shoulder shake or a deak.

heck, Gabby never dekes...he always goes for the snipe as hes is a sniper. He's no crosby!

Well, what do the professors have to say about the game last night? hehe

[mnwild]

They had to fight to win the game last night, nice to see a win in regulation since Feb 2nd, hope they can keep it up.

Anyone see the comment in the paper about the Wild GM regarding the Simon trade??

In one day -- Tuesday, the NHL trading deadline -- General Manager Doug Risebrough kneecapped the Wild with the two worst decisions in team history. One -- the acquisition of Chris Simon -- was embarrassing. The other -- failing to markedly improve a team begging for help, a team that might have a small window of opportunity to win a Stanley Cup in a balanced league -- was the continuation of a status quo that allows the Wild to sell tickets but not challenge for championships.

Couldn't of said it better...

Really big win lastnight!! Hopefully we can rattle off 2 or 3 in a row now!

[mnwild]

They should win the next three games against Florida, L.A and Chicago, very beatable teams.

[walleyes12]

Another good but tough win for the wild tonight!! They take 2 out of 3 on the road, couldn't ask for anymore! I think the trade talks are behind the team and hopefully everyone can focus on the future. The next week or two they play very beatable teams.

I didn't catch the game until the 3rd and it looked like is was another hang on till the end. I wish they would not do this anymore. A win is a win and I'll take it.

The wild actually dominated the first two periods, it didn't even look like the Panthers wanted to be there. Then The Third we got into penalty trouble and let them back into the game! Your right, we got close the door on teams and not let them get close
