    go vikes go😉

    Being I’m an Eagles fan because of a nephew on the team they can make any QB look like Joe Montana. I’ve never seen a worse defensive backfield. By the way I grew up a Vikes fan and still am unless of course they are playing the Eagles. Heading to Philly Wednesday to help my daughter move there for her new LPGA job. Going to a Flyers/Stars game Saturday night

    Another ass kicking by UND. 8-1 over Canisius this time. Shots 37-12 UND. Now the big test next weekend in Mankato

  3. UND got a little revenge from when they were swept by Canisius out in their barn last year to open the season winning in dominant fashion 5-0. Outshot the Griffins 40-13 in doing so. This freshman kid in Pinto could very well be ROY in the NCHC. 6'2" 200 pound freshman who isn't afraid to go to the dirty areas. Defense was stout and Sheel in net looked clam as he did have a couple point blake shots from the slot. Need to finish them tonight. Attendance was around 9000, so not bad with a full blown blizzard happening outside.

    I don't know. Some of those early wild teams were pretty bad. I know, I sat through some pretty bad games... 

    true but they get a pass somewhat since they just entered the league.

    Saw that. 

     

    I guess the way I look at it is that this team was at best going to be a playoff bubble team if everything goes right. If they get hit with injuries or get into a prolonged slump, they may miss the Playoffs. 

     

    This is team has always been streaky. They’ll lose four or five in a row and then all of a sudden rip off six wins in a row. 

     

    But it I do think the chickens are coming home to roost. The team built around Koivu, Parise and Suter and then failed to draft and develop any young scorers, preferring to draft “safe” players. 

    This team isn’t making the playoffs. I’ll be happy to eat crow if they do but that isn’t happening. This could be the worse team in Wild history

    From Russo's story. Yikes.
     
    • Zach Parise has one goal and has taken three shots in three games and is minus-5. He didn’t score for a ninth consecutive game in Winnipeg.
    • Eric Staal has no points, has taken three shots and is minus-7.
    • Mats Zuccarello has no points, is minus-5, has taken two shots, has taken the first penalty in each game before the first TV timeout and in his own words has indeed been “terrible.”
    • Jared Spurgeon, who had an absolutely nightmarish game and finished minus-4, has no points and is minus-8 this season.
    • Kevin Fiala has no points, and despite looking pretty on a number of offensive-zone possessions Thursday, turned the puck over nine different times.
    • Greenway has no points. Kunin has no points. Ryan Donato has no points. Joel Eriksson Ek has no points.

    Agree, but, unfortunately, their team is a different too in comparison to our. Tarasenko is a star there for many years already as well as their Binnington is not our Dubnyk also. The team should start their history from a superb goalie capable to steal most games, but not losing every game 3-4 goals. We do not have that one yet as well as a superb finishers. At least our good effort yesterday was in multiple shots - 40. We do not see that very often from our team.

    What we do see with those shots are missed opportunities, which is nothing new with this team. Wild could of easily won last night had they cashed in on a couple of their grade A chances
