Good teams should not lose two games in a row. We'll see if they get their feet and concentration back for this one.

 

I'll predict a Wild win, 4 - 2, despite Brodin still missing.

[Alexandron]

5:3 Wild win. Agree. Not acceptable to lose 2 in a row for the 1st team at Central Division.

[ClusterChuck]

Glad to hear Brodin is just sick and not an UBI like first mentioned.
Thanks Dumba  Couldn't resist.
I would like to predict a 6-5 win, But I'll shave it back to a 4-3 Wild Win.
Hopefully they have their minds back on the game tonight.

Is Audra wearing a Bump-It in her hair?!?!?!

[wildstars95]

1 point at least tonight    ..... 4-3 vegas o.t

Kap line will have 2+ goals.  They are due to have another high point game - too many close misses lately.

[ClusterChuck]

So Brodin does have an UBI 

[bbgarnett]

3-2 wild 

[MNSOTA]

How was that a penalty????

[Tomdog]

After lest night I don't think I will jinx the team by making another prediction.

[Tomdog]

Thankfully they got rid of the gold helmits

Yeah, after last night’s silver helmets, gold tonight would have been too much.

Lol at the cheerleaders on the staircase. What is this? College hockey or the NHL?

Las Vegas doesn't understand hockey. This is just another show for them.

[ClusterChuck]

So far Deja-Vu from last night.

[Tomdog]

The wild never seem to handle a full court press well

[bbgarnett]

Man that was bad.

Was that another Dumba turnover that started that

Is Pitlick a healthy scratch or an injury

I think Healthy Scratch.

[Tomdog]

With last night's game, maybe some fresh legs would help.
