CreaseAndAssist Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Stats only today. I (MNSOTA) am too frustrated with this team when it comes to games against the Blues, so I didn't feel like wasting my time when they'll simply waste MY time. Also, it's way too nice outside.

lynxrattle Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 The Blues really have got us under a spell. This should be already playoffs with the first task of sending the Blues golfing and let the Yotes have a playoffs round instead of them. Unfortunately it doesn't look like we have the strength to achieve that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thermometer is showing now 90 oF(30 oC.). Anyway it should be our a 3rd attempt of a must win home game in regulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it doesn't look like we have the strength to achieve that. I do not think now a lot depending of our game. IMO, Blues will not be so desperate to win tonight. They have 8 games left in a regular season vs 5 games for Coyotes plus they are 3 points ahead of Arizona team. Vegas lost last night to Arizona(0:3) for a reason to play against them during the 1st playoffs round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandron Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 According to Russo, Kahkonen will get a start tonight and also Fiala and Rask will play together. The rest lines are unchanged. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandron Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I also think is very important to win tonight to make a special gift for Kaprizov, because he is having 2 holidays celebrating in Russia ( International Workers (Labor) Day today and Orthodox Easter tomorrow).

ClusterChuck Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Need to get 2 pts tonight. I was hoping for 4 in this 3 game set but 3 would be 'ok'. Last time with Kahkonen in net, The team seemed to play harder to protect him. Hopefully the same happens tonight. Even tho last game the Wild had a fantastic entertaining comeback but that was against Husso. Binnington might have had other ideas. Can't fall behind tonight like that.

bbgarnett Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 LOL Walz, Foligno couldn't get across Binnington's sightlines. What I mean by that is he couldn't get across his sightlines. Great insight Walz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if we end up playing COL then maybe, as every time we've played COL in the playoffs the team with home ice lost the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptyShelf Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Party of 3 tonight......Clearly, we need to join a Bingo Club, a Bowling Team, or Pull-Tab Club or something to show some that we aren't 'socially awkward'.
