They must be trying to play Reeves into game shape. 
I see no other reason to play him tonight over Camarossa. 

[Math]

A quarter season has already been played and Anaheim has one regulation win so far. One (1).

 

Watched them earlier this week and I've never seen such a bad team for years. Their offense is erratic and clumsy, their defense is putrid, Gibson and Stolarz are both awful, the coach doesn't seem concerned at all.

 

Easy win for the Wild.

I agree,  Should win this one but our guys like to keep things close.  {And Ducks seem to hang in there somewhat} .  <--- *scratch that...  
I'll still go with a 5-2 Wild win with Gusto in net.

A must win game. I would like to predict a shutout 4:0 in our win. Hope I will be right.

[ClusterChuck]

Great chance to finish off the homestand 5-2 when given how they were playing and injuries going into it, I thought we'd only get 2 wins. 
Get a comfy lead by the 3rd so we can roll 4 lines and rest some for the Stars game tomorrow.

Wrong prediction. 1:1 now.

Dewar with the clean up. !!

[Alexandron]

Nice speeds so far.

[ClusterChuck]

Very close to a Reaves goal.

 

[Alexandron]

Shots 10:10 at this moment. Good goal from the 4th line. Team needs that.

[wildstars95]

holy smokes look at reaves go out there 

[ClusterChuck]

Middleton kept that from going in by pushing Gusto away from line.
