If only they ‘matched up’ with the Jets,Avs or Stars.
Seth, Have the Wild played (this season) Dallas, Jets, Knights, Avalanche with their roster full?
It is fully acceptable to not allow poverty of expectations to set in! Players that should be leading need to lead! They're not entitled to feel their performance is ok if they don't expect themselves to grind out better numbers regardless of other streaks and injuries. Stretch your own expectations, don't make the fans the bad guys!
Миннесота вот что вам мешало играть так же с Вегасом ?
Сет, к Вам просьба: включайте сразу субтитры. В Ваших подкастах с обзором матчей и с Денни субтитры включаются через день или два.
Fun game, I was there.
What a class act Ove is ❤
The key is to have clinched before going to Vancouver / Calgary. The Blues are playing well – an extremely favorable schedule with Nashville being on the radar for 3 games / Chicago etc. It’s not who you play but when you play them – who would have thought Nashville would have stunk it up this badly?
If the Wild go .500, the teams below them would have to play 900 hockey. I see EK and 97 are skating, maybe they can inject some life into a tired ( rightfully so) group…
P2: Freddy at 18 is stunning number. He is a true hockey player and back to himself.
Duhaime at 8 – would fit nicely this year…
I watched Calgary dominate Dallas after the Wild game – DeSmith was unconscious, take a look the shot attempts.
Sounds like Jiricek is done for the season due to injury.
