wild/nhl

Nice game boys. And way to stand up for each other when the Lanche started throwing down.

That's offense....and how you win.

@Lindylittlejoefrank, I am not the most positive about the Wild. They won and I was wrong, my predictions are 5 wins 2 losses on the year now, last time I picked them to win, so its not always to lose..... I reflected on my thoughts of my recent posters and I tried to look for a way to articulate a different way. Its like this, The Wild spend so much more money compared to most other teams, by nature teams they play against must be smart and that is not Colorado

Think Sid will recognize 1/that they won and 2/they scored more goals than they have all year? I doubt it.

I wouldn't read too much into the last two games or what Bouchard did point-wise today. Colorado is a dreadful defensive team, perhaps the worst in the NHL. How bad are they? The Wild, a team that is hard-pressed for goals most nights, has scored 18 goals on it in four games. Nice wins, but take them with a grain of salt. I do believe this team has turned a corner since Zucker's arrival. But I wouldn't start talking about how PMB has turned the corner simply because he got a nice assist and a gift-wrapped goal. He still looked timid, even against a team that doesn't hit much in its own end. Zucker needs to be put back on that second line for Monday, and PMB needs to once again be scratched. In fact, I would've loved to see what Zucker could've done to Colorado over these past two games. Probably would've had five or six points in the two games.

@caferev: Did it ever occur to you BOTH Zucker and PMB could play? I have seen too much arguing over whether or not PMB should play. PMB has more points than Brodziak who has played in every game and gets a ton a of ice time. I am not saying Brodziak should be scratched (just making a simple observation). The odd man out should be Konopka. Konopka has 0 points this season and his role is basically the same as Rupp.

Great win and nice to see the team showing it's skills. We are very vulnerable however with Stoner's ability. Poor Spurgeon has to cover for him regularly and for a young, undersized defenseman it is not fair. Stoner spins around like an old gate in the wind! WOW, is he he Yeo's brother-in-law or something?

There is not a poster on here who knows or can comprehend what PMB has been through and of what contributions and sacrifices he has made for our club and for our entertainment. It is clear to me that while he has recovered enough from his injuries to play he has not recovered from them all of the way. He is still pluggng away at that. Even so, he still has better hands then most guys in the show right now. I know and fully understand that its pro sports and it is what have you done for me today but this guy has some gifts that most players just dont have. We should be hoping he can come all the way back, because if he could or does this team would be that much farther ahead....

Are you sure? I asked the guy with inter web service at the rink last night? He said yep. I thought it was a typo, 11 goals in two games. Un believe able, what caused the bottleneck early in the year? Why no big games like this before? These past two games have been amazing.i hope we can keep it going. I look forward to the next few games with Van. And Det. As benchmarks on our progress. Roll on Wild.

MKIA I told you earlier, we are still trying to purge D.R. contracts.Our payroll will come down when those contracts expire. Caferev, u read my mind about Zucker. 2-4 goals he gets if he plays the last 2. Put him back on line 2, unless they are gonna showcase Bouch and try to get some trade value..
