51Game 7: Flyers at Blue Jackets 10/18/18 7:00 pm

OccamsRazor - PostedNo worry i am with you....firing him was just a knee jerk reaction that the Preds are happy about. Would have been impressed to see what his Jam system could do with this club especially the wheels the blueline currently has. -
44Minnesota Wild vs Arizona Coyotes, Tuesday 10-16-18, 7:00pm, Xcel Energy Center
Minnesota Wild
EJ0226 - PostedHonestly if you step away from being a fan for a second and look at this team from afar you can see some major issues. First they played a team that has only scored 2 five on five goals and 3 goals in regulation. The Wild should have the fire power to put the Coyotes on their heels. Factor in the "defensive style" Minnesota is suppose to be known for then the Wild should have won easily. Dubnyk had to make some incredible saves to keep the team in it. As somebody said, if Dubnyk was having a off game it could have easily been 4-1. The Wild appear to be overwhelmed a lot. Speed is lacking. Breakout is lacking. Puck control is lacking. Defense is lacking. Now if this wasn't a on going issue with the Wild it would be easy to wave it off and just call it a fluke. But the M.O. for this team has become this. Now factor in we are the oldest team and these older players are not all of a sudden going to get faster or start doing things they never have done before. People would be wanting heads if the Twins did the same thing. Just a minor tweak cause them made the playoffs. Good teams build a team to win. Then improve it to make the playoffs. Then build it to advanced in the playoffs and finally build it to have a chance to win the championship. Making the playoffs over and over only to squeak maybe one win off in that run is not a sign of a good team or a team a tweak or two away. The Wild are built to be the 15th or 16th place team. Now age and lack of talent is starting to show its head more and more.
I am happy that they won. Us Minnesota sport fans have it rough. But I won't blindly follow a team and give them non stop support when there is clearly major issues going on. I will cheer for them but I will criticize them too. Especially with a owner who only thinks a tweak or two will make this team a deep playoff contender when it's becoming clearer and clearer the boat is leaking and patchwork jobs is no longer a option. I love having hockey back. I was heartbroken with Green left with the Stars. I love the Wild but I think the only shot this team had of winning the Cup was the first few years of the Parise and Suter signing but that has since long gone. I don't think this team makes the playoffs this year. If they do I foresee the same results as we have seen for years now. Now I would be happy to eat my words on this and they went deep and showed fight. But Parise and Suter are on the downside of their careers. Parise might be a good check away from retirement. To see a resurgence like Staal has had is very rare. I doubt we see that with anybody else from this group. I hope they win and go deep with this group. I would love for nothing else but I will also see the issues and not ignore them. -

OccamsRazor - PostedAnother thing i haven't seen mentioned so i will. Scott Laughton is a LW he is not a center....we saw that last night so get healthy Patrick so you can get your 2nd line center gig back and they can return Laughton to the wing on the 3rd or 4th. Also how was this not called a dive last night??? So Cindyesque i was impressed.... Yet they called Ivan on this. It is good to see the refs have started where they left off last year. Just horrible. -

OccamsRazor - Posted7 games played so far 4 of them they have given up 5+ goals in. So how does Hak fix this sh it fest??? When and how does the bleeding stop?? 7 games Ivan has one assist. -5. Not good. When Hagg is your leading points producer through 7 games (2 g 3 a 5 p). That is a huge part of it. Would love for them to finally hold Gord Murphy accountable. But i guess can't expect that when they won't hold Lappy accountable. Knowing them they say "Hey Lappy has made improvements we are no longer one of the worst PK groups now just the 21st worse....progress is progress!" And the PP is 15th at home and 12th on the road....the definition of mediocre. So with this nice collection of talent how long of a rope does Ron give Hak??? I would say this is a talented squad except in goal....which is a collection of spare parts backup castoffs. I can see why Toronto went with Sparks in goal instead of Pickard....i waive this guy as soon as Neuvy is healthy and can sit on the bench. I mean i know he has Folin and can't get up but after this weak ass goal it's all i need to see HTF you going to let that shot go 5 hole bro?? Are you f**king kidding me??? Buh bye! Get the f**k outta here!!!!!! And what is he exactly doing here??? Really??? Send this clown packing. -
0Shultz down
Pittsburgh Penguins
nossagog - PostedTough break, literally, for Justin Shultz. He's really reestablished himself in Pittsburgh. Get healthy and come back refreshed. If there is any bright side, I think this means we'll see a lot of Riikola I really like his game, and he's already taking up second paring minutes and is on the second PP unit.
