Gah damn. We might be cooked
It's about time that Guerin makes a statement to the stars of the Wild, saying it's time we start doing business. I'm honestly surprised that they also did not decide to bench either Boldy or Krill, yet to get the rest of the team a statement that we need to get moving and make Boldy and Krill have a moment to rethink how they should proceed, and look at their game a bit. Yes, we are still in a playoff spot, but the more games the Wild continue to lose, the more in jeopardy the Wild could be in, possibly dropping into a wildcard spot instead of keeping themselves within the top three. The Wild need to win against these teams below the playoff line. When we don't, it's making everyone question why can we win against the good teams and not against the easy ones. Well, that's what is going through everyone's heads, and I have an answer to that: consistency. The wild continue to drop their game against these teams below the playoff line because they drop their game down to the level of the others. That's not the way you play hockey; it's about having a consistent game, going out on the ice to prove to yourself and your team that you are a competitor. Wild need to stand up against Chicago and make a huge statement not only to the fans and management but to the entire NHL that we are a legit team for the Stanley Cup. The Wild have the stars and the talent; the talent just needs to show up every night.
Not good regarding Ek, but someone must step up. Thanks, Kirk, for the update.
Hynes has to go, his line combos never make sense ..you can also tell his players aren't buying into what he's doing
when you have millions in the bank ….who the fuck wants to play hard 😉
Thare hesitation before shooting is hurting them plus their shot selection is poor. They’re going for quantity instead of quality. After the Colorado game they look like they have lead skates on.
And here we go again into the playoffs they’re tanking every year they could start losing when they go into the playoffs and lose home advantage so here’s another seven game series lost in the first round again and if they get sight of this, they should read it and if that doesn’t put a fire in their belly nothing will.
Should have gone harder for trocheck
Ek being out is not bad news at all. Heading into the playoffs with full health is paramount. The club is not battling for a spot in the tournament, so load management and overall team health may be BG’s primary concern. I hope the team begins to rotate dinged up players and those battling injuries or fatigue for the rest of the season. Gotta look at big picture here. Regular season wins are nice, but winning a Stanley Cup is the goal.
How can anyone use so many words to say so little?
That graph was amazingly helpful
this summer a trade package of Ek and Brodin for Brady Tkachuk or Jack Hughes, Ek and Brodin at this point in their career are always getting hurt
This fucking happens every time you start bringing in players at the trade deadline the wild got to this point before the trade with the team they had and Bill always feels like he’s gotta do some tweaking. Hopefully he learns his lesson.
How long before briink and foligno come back
Bill g ueran bringing 40 plus years old guys on the trade deal no wonder why they are f n hurt all the time there 30 to 45 year olds guys if u have a nhl team that lost 4 to 5 games in a row play minn wild and get ur team back on track and winning again
