Why not?
Not going to break up Dumba-Brodin and I kinda like the Gologoski-Kulikov combo.

[ClusterChuck]

Having the whole team back has to give them that old chemistry back...At least in their heads
Wild win this 5-3.

[Math]

Given the terrific tenure of the Red Wings' D who allowed nine goals against the second-worst team of the league: Wild win 24-2.

[Jimtown guy]

Wild 5-3 

[wildstars95]

6-3 wild 

[Jimtown guy]

Didn’t take long to to tie it up either

[Math]

Little aparté and speaking about the Coyotes' surnatural offensive threat, they are leading 2-0 against the Leafs after 4 minutes, which means they have score almost 20 goals in a bit more than 2 games.

 

What is wrong with this team ?!?

[Tomdog]

God I hate listening to hockey!

[Tomdog]

Man is Detroit a mess!

[Jimtown guy]

We will take it 

[Jimtown guy]

WTF 

[ClusterChuck]

Spurgeon What were you doing there besides spin around?!?
This National feed female announcer isn't very good.

[Jimtown guy]

Looks like the Wild may give up 9 tonight 

[ClusterChuck]

Yikes...

[ClusterChuck]

I missed the first 12 minutes of the period...Now I'm wishing it was all 20. 

[wildstars95]

I will lend talbot my coke bottles ...for the night 

[Jimtown guy]

[EmptyShelf]

Talbott is really slipping during the Wild's trade window....Coincidence?
