TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I wonder if the Wild should have Mermis shoot more. Maybe even give him a shot at quarterbacking the PP....he seems to have a pretty hard, zippy shot. Can't hurt. PP is pretty power-less at the moment. That last PP goal was what? First one in several games? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merrill needs to go Sadly, at last check, Spurge was still on longterm IR, and if all goes well, the earliest he could return would be November 7th. Any setbacks, of course, pushes that back even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because NJ defensemen are actually, you know, tracking their guy...unlike a certain Wild D-man whose name rhymes with Cheryl....

TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Some real good work by Brock Faber against Timo Meier just then. Disrupted him enough, and skated with him stride for stride so that Meier couldn't get any clean looks or shots at Fleury. And that is no small task. Meier is built like a brick house and is known to be very hard to go body on body with. Kudos to Faber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomdog Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I think Merrill has lost his job to Mermis when Spurg comes back, maybe even before if Goose comes back first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was about to say I prefer Mermis over Merrill myself on the team....then Mermis goes and gets a penalty. Meh...still, Mermis > Merrill. But first, a word from our penalty killing sponsors...

ClusterChuck Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Given our current D, It doesn't matter who's in goal. We're going to give up 3-4 goals each game for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomdog Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Maybe the net front presence on the power play is over rated when you consider that it makes player and puck movement harder. NJ power play is all about 5 players moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
