Should be a good game tonight. With a tough road trip coming up, need to take care of business at home. Also get a chance to get another good look at Tomas Hertl, who figures to be a potential trade deadline acquisition as the Wild look to upgrade at center.

3-2 Wild.

1st game I have to miss this season (unless NHL66 replays it's feed later)
Hope it's a good one for you all.
Days off hasn't been that great for the Wild and I kinda wanted to predict a 4-3 loss...
But I'll go with a 5-3 win. :P

I would like to predict our 4:3 win (in OT or SO).

I hope it will be a good one on home ice. Maybe we will see a 2nd hat trick from Pitlick? Or maybe from Fiala and Kaprizov their 2nd too?

5-3 wild is my guess 

[bbgarnett]

4-1 Wild is my guess 

[TallyTigerShark]

Good start so far. Like the energy and the passing has been pretty crisp.

[wildstars95]

greenway churla

[bbgarnett]

Middleton looks very much like Cal Clutterbuck 

[TallyTigerShark]

Alright, we are down 1-0. Got’em just where we want them!

[Tomdog]

not sure where dumba was on that goal

[TallyTigerShark]

I’d have to go back and look at the replay. Was a nice play by the Sharks though. Took a perfect pass and they executed.

 

Side note, I really don’t like Burns.

Burns has become more of a Jack A$$ since leaving the Wild.....And a MORE dangerous player, unfortunately.  Nice trade 

[Tomdog]

this is the greenway we need to see

[TallyTigerShark]

Is it just me or has it been a while since Kaprizov has seen the ice?

[wildstars95]

the execution of play's is off by a tad 

[bbgarnett]

damn great chance

I think he is sensing heat from Iowa may be upon him.  There are several forwards putting up points (Beckman, Rossi, Swaney).  He doesn't have much breathing room and better show something different if he isn't going to score.

[bbgarnett]

geez get Dumba off the ice and sit his ass in the pressbox

Pitlick with a TAKEDOWN and fists!?!?  Never seen that before.  New Fan Favorite

[EmptyShelf]

Only a rough!??  WTH are they watching (though I am not complaining)
