From what I have seen so far Zucker and Zucker only could be effective against Edmontons professional hockey team, Brodin has proved himself, all of the rest of these last names have proven nothing other than media attention. Thing with Zucker is he has some speed

What are the other picks your talking about ...Grandlund, Larsson, Coyle and Zucker. These last names are to make someone forgive all of the booing that goes on at Wild games because when these guys start playing to their potential a new compass for the franchise will all of the sudden magically appear.... The compass got flushed out with sale........ hehehehhehehehhehe

LOTS OF TALENT IN THE CHUTE FOR THESE TWO TEAMS. Looking forward, Edmonton and Minnesota could have quite the rivalry even if there is a league alignment considering so many of these young men played against each other for so long now. Should be fun to watch.

Minors Schminors... Its nice they succeeded in against them in Houston. Look at Edmontons guys in the NHL last year, Taylor Hall 27G, 26A. Jordan Eberle 34G, 42A. Ryan-Nugent Hopkins 18G,34A. When Granny puts up 34 Goals like Eberle, then we're cooking. until then, its just talk. Zuckers been good, a bright spot..

Yeo would be a fool to break up the lines from Sunday just to bring back Bouchard, Falk or (heaven forbid!) Konopka! NONE of these 3 have done the team any good this season, while the call-ups showed what they could do last Sunday.

The Wild still win this game. Edmonton's just another Edmonton team, no matter how much star power they bring. 4-2 Wild.
