Predicting our Wild win 4:3, hopefully in regulation. Team shows a nice character.

[ClusterChuck]

Whew...Just got home from working in time for this one.
Wild win 4-2.

[MNSOTA]

Eating bean and ham soup here for the game. 

[J0e Th0rnton]

Hoping Hertl and Karlsson score for my fantasy team, but otherwise hoping Addison also scores a bunch and sharks continue tank hard for Bedard

 

Good luck wild!

Well almost had a heart attack watching the Vikes today so let's hope for a less heart attack inducing game here.

Anyone else have a VPN on their phone? I use Nord, and suddenly I can’t use the forums while my VPN is connected. If I disconnect or pause the connection it works just fine. Which of course defeats the purpose of using a VPN.

That was absolutely insane. Of course we couldn’t see the OT on TV, because living in Wisconsin, we were forced to switch to the Packers-Cowboys game.

HOW does Kap even see (then make) the passes he makes?  At least PU finished that one.

I couldn't watch a game on a tiny phone screen 
I haven't got Nord yet for PC since volokit has been coming in sharp and no redirects when going from full screen to forum like the other sites.

That whole sequence by Kap was amazing and smooth.

[ClusterChuck]

You get a shot and you get a shot...Everybody gets a shot. 
I like it.

[ClusterChuck]

Brodin's human and Gustav comes up big !!

Not watching game on phone, but I have one on phone just for an extra level of security. We watch game on computer and in order for stream to work, VPN has to be enabled.

Ek needs a goal badly.

Just like our moms growing up he has eyes in the back of his head 

[ClusterChuck]

Sharks got close twice late. 
Still a good period and the fans in the stand deserve this effort after the last few home games.

I heard parts on the radio on breaks and the ending driving between jobs.
Paul Allen may be weird but he's passionate to say the least. Made it fun to hear all the craziness.

I was saying with jade on you tube ..get by the eagles and we could see a rematch of 0-4 in superbowl's rematch game 

[ClusterChuck]

Not sure if I like Merril and Addison together, But if it's working, So be it.
Maybe they want Brodin to support Dumba again.

If you saw his 1st 3 starts, I'd agree.
