Alexandron Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 According to their impressive stats, it seems we are going to play against a very well developed high scoring team. Our defense should play tonight their best 60 minutes. Predicting our win 5:4 in OT (or SO). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexandron Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Michael Russo @RussoHockey 3h. Filip Gustavsson, who has lost two in a row, starts for #mnwild against the #njdevils, playing for the seventh time in 11 days. Marcus Foligno will play, but Evason said there are a couple question marks up front. He’ll play with Ryan Hartman and Mats Zuccarello.

ClusterChuck Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I like these games against tough teams as we do play better. If Gustav is sharp, I can see a 3-2 game but we may need more given his last 2 starts. I'll go Wild win 4-3. Johansson one of the ? marks maybe.

TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Lots of big hits early along the boards by both teams. You love to see it! Gustavsson also looks sharp early on, and he has HAD to be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClusterChuck Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Got a bit crazy there for a while. Good time for a TV timeout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Some touch n go moments in front of Gus. Wild aren't playing terrible, BUT, they aren't making the best clearing attempts and the puck is ending back on NJ sticks. A bit more pressure on the NJ side of the ice would be nice too. 4 SOG through nearly the first period isn't gonna cut it. Stuff that should be easy to clean up.

They heard you late in the period there. Tying them up nicely in front of Gustav also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreaseAndAssist Posted March 22, 2023 Author Share Posted March 22, 2023 Not a lot of open ice out there. Evason must be pretty happy with his 4th line because he let Shaw, Dewar and Reaves stay out there for their normal shift consistently. Good game so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
