2 for diving

Gavrikov cross checks Foligno, then doesn't want to answer the bell when Moose comes a-callin?
What a chicken ^%$.

Besides, it was Jake Freakin Bean that pushed Foligno INTO the Jackets' goalie!

I can understand Merzlikins pushing on Foligno because he was the one bumped, but Gavrikov and his 'hit n run' crosscheck is straight from the Darcy Tucker school of hockey.

He better hope Foligno doesn't find him later.... AFTER the Wild get one more goal that is.

Let's go boys!

[wildstars95]

na .. save the violence for the pred's

PP coming up for Minnesota.

Here is their chance to stick a fork in the Jackets.

C'mon Fiala... Need you on the ice. 
We should  be up at least 3-1 by now.

[TropicalFruitGirl26]

See that, Gavrikov?

You didn't answer the bell, and Jake Voracek felt Moose's wrath on that big hit.

BOOM!

[wildstars95]

ouch ...

[Cookie]

Good to see Voracek back on the bench. 

[ClusterChuck]

You knew it was coming.

[wildstars95]

bonus hockey again 

[TropicalFruitGirl26]

Damn....half a minute away from putting this in the W column.

Oh well...they don't call these Wild the Cardiac Crew for nuthin...

Dumba should never be on the 3 on 3.

[wildstars95]

no to ....vorachek winner in shoot out 

[Cookie]

Let's decide this one with a shoot out. 

[ClusterChuck]

Coughed up a big point there.

[ClusterChuck]

That's 5 in a row for Wonder-Boy too.

[wildstars95]

1 point better than nothing 

[TropicalFruitGirl26]

I liked our chances with Kap being the next guy up....BUT, then I saw him do the dipsy doodle wide move and, well, has that ever really worked for anyone?

I would think it gives the goalie time to think and set.

Kap has the speed n skills to just go right at the goalie.
Shoulda done that.

Oh well.
Got a point stolen, but one is better than none.

This was certainly one of those games where the team who played the better overall game didn't get the most points in the end.

I did until the last 30 seconds of the game.   Pretty much to a tee as the goals came on the PP as well. That changed pretty damn quickly.
