TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Vegas has taken over it seems. Silver lining here is: Wild players are still skating hard, not folding the tents. Also, Vegas HAS been known to let the foot off the gas a bit... and there is still an entire 3rd period to play. Bleak, but not impossible as long as Minnesota doesn't mail anything in the rest of the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClusterChuck Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I've seen 3 chances that a 1-timer would be nice... So much over passing, But what's new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmptyShelf Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 GM Bill Guerin has some MAJOR work to do this summer that will test his meddle: 1) Figure out how to get a C that can win a face-off regularly 2) Find a way to dispose of Parise and Suter before they utterly collapse as AHL players 3) Construct a team that can WIN in the playoffs 4) Put SOMEONE on Kap's line that can actually finish and keep him from getting MUGGED every shift 5) Get some more BEEF in the back 6) Re-sign the future of the team; Kap, EEK, Fiala - in that order 7) 'Flush the turds' that are absorbing CAP with little contribution 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClusterChuck Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Stone looks like he arrives at the rink, Gets off his Harley, Walks into the locker room and punches Tuch in the face, Because he can and goes to work. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. most games 1 goal diff and are spread out through the season. This year a bit different with 2's but a 7gm series is a whole different beast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptyShelf Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 1 hour ago, Jimtown guy said: Hey but they had a great home regular season record 2/3 of our players are too small or too soft to win in the playoffs. Giving away a Tuch is a perfect example of looking for (or preserving) the wrong type of player for the playoffs. We have 2-3 Dumba types. You only need 1, whereas you need more than 2 Tuchs. Greenway and Foligno are a POOR man's version of Tuch. Rask, Zucc, Parise, Johansson, Bjug, are either too small or too soft to be the rest of the forwards on a playoff series winning team. If small, they better have game-breaking ability (Kap, Fiala). Otherwise - LIABILITIES. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Wild not exactly "moving the needle" here. Almost to the halfway point of the final period and I would have thought at LEAST one of the goals should have been recovered by now.
