Big week for the Wild.

[Scott K]

Well the Wild pulled off 2pts again last night. They just have to learn to stop letting the other teams get a point. There was alot of bad calls last night, I thought for sure the refs would make them loose the game, but the Wild found away to beat the Predators and the refs. Next up, the Canucks.

[maros91]

The Wild gave up a 2 goal lead twice in the 3rd last night. Been giving up alot of goals lately. Need a C and a D man before the trade deadline.

[walleyes12]

Great game, wild played tough, they had a couple of "D" breakdowns. It sounds like the wild are going to pick up a player. They way it sounds we are a front runner for Forsberg. They also mentioned that Fedorov could be an option. Who knows, I guess its a waiting game

[Jakesbuds]

I couldnt believe they let that last Nashville goal slide, that guy went on his own into the crease straight into the goalie's face. Either way, we came out on top thanks to Gaborik. They keep talking about Forsberg possibly coming, so a waiting game it is.

[maros91]

The Wild deserved to lose tonight. They shouldn't even gotten a point. Just a poor game by the Wild. Can someone from the Wild please win a face off? I mean come on, I could have won a draw out there. I hate the Nucks so bad. I really hate the Sedin boys. All they do is whine and cry. Someone needs to cheap shot Cooke and put him out of his misery. How do you give up 36 shots to the Canucks? All they have is one line that can score. I am pretty ticked at my local club right now. Since they took tonight off they beater beat the Blackhawks tomorrow night.

AHHHHHAHAHAHAHA, funny post!

Looks like they did exactly what I said they have been doing.

Kane is probably gonna light 'em up tomorrow night. lol

J/K guys, I'm a Wild fan too.

[maros91]

Kane and Toews could go for 3 pts a piece tomorrow with the way the Wild have been playing.

[mnwild]

Very pathetic game last night, it was the 1st game in over a week I have watched due to being in Mexico all last week and it was the worst game I have watched all year. Hopefully tonight they can turn it around and get 2 points.

[8-Ball]

I feel your pain, brother. I was there last night and witnessed the ugliest game by our boys I have ever been to. God-awful. How can you not be up and ready for the Canucks? I wonder what happens Sunday when our other arch-rival enemy Calgary comes to the X? I pray it is not a repeat of last night, because I am going to that one, too.

[cjac]

Same old story, at one point in the 3rd face offs were 25 to 15 and shots on goal were worse than that.......that's really sad.

Those Sedin boys......well, they make me want to see the Hanson Brothers line come out of retirement!

One more thing: Why did Fedoruk get the 10 minute misconduct? Even the instigator minor added on was questionable, both sets of gloves and sticks fell at the same time. But the misconduct took any aggression out of the Wild's game, do one thing and you're screwed for the rest of the night??

He got the misconduct beacause I believe if one of your players gets checked and you jump in you get the instigator and the 10 minute misconduct. They want the players not to jump in after a player gets cleanly hit.

[cjac]

I guess that makes sense, but really that's what the instigator additional minor is meant for.

Wonder if the player jumping in had a visor too, would that get him another penalty?? Kidding.....sort of......

Just frustrated after last night's game....

Chris

[maros91]

Now that you mention the visor thing I thought I heard somewhere that if a player fights a guy with a visor he may get an extra 2 minutes or a misconduct or something like that.

Remember when Al Secord used to roam the ice for the Hawks. Seemed like him and Basil McCrae always hooked up in the old days.

[cjac]

The visor deal came up the other night when Rolston tangled with that guy after he dropped Mitchell. I didn't catch all of it but I think he got an extra 2 for instigating with a visor.......he had the visor and Rolston didn't. Someone can clarify for me?

Hawks and Stars......

Dino leaving the ice and giving the fans the "bird", arm up high. The announcer, can't recall who at the time saying: "Dino's showing them who's #1!" Instant classic line....

Secord and Willie Plett danced a few times too......

[colonel42]

AHHHH Yes, the good ol'days of hockey. Willie, Dino, Donny Boulpre,Giles Maloush. Heck, that was before they had Cable TV up on Da Range. Back in the days when we as kids had to walk ten mile to school up hill both ways bare foot in the middle of a snow storm.

Basil McCrae my favorite, he was always up to no good. You new the hawks were in town, it was going to be an intense night!!

I haven't watched every game, but I can't remember the last time they beat the Flames. They always lose by 1.

3-2 Calgary................

[8-Ball]

I don't recall, either. I see Calgary beat Dallas 3-2 tonight in Big D. They will be pumped coming in here for Sundays tilt. They have the momentum definitely over us right now. I hope Sunday is not a repeat of the last few games. You gotta be ready from the drop of the puck. Our opponents lately have been and we have not. That has got to change if Jacque and crew expect to make any noise in the playoffs. It has to start NOW. Flames only 3 back of us after tonight and I heard they made a trade for a physical D-man tonight. Anybody here who? Is Risebrough gonna sit on his hands again or go get someone that can win a face-off and rattle some bones? Oh, and of course we had our nightly Skoula dipsh*t play that directly led to a goal (again). I wish he would catch a cold or something..

[Scott K]

The Wild just got manhandled last night. Chicago was knocking our guys down at will. We needed Bougard out there to protect them, or at least to stand up to some of these guys. They better step it up, if they even want to make it in the playoffs.

Is a physical and tough D man. Maybe the Wild will counter with something.
