The Wild have lost their last 3 games and are on trip through Western Canada. With their pretty significant drop in the Central division standings its time they turn it around. We didn't play very well the last time we were in Vancouver. The team should be fairly well rested, so there should be no excuses going into tonight's game. Enjoy and discuss.

Alexandron Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 We have a good chance to win this game. Hope , for our 2 points game there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey-78 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 An honorable mention to our 3rd D pair Pateryn and Seeler. They've met the expectations the whole season. Nothing against Prosser but it's refreshing to see some other choices. Yeah, we (sadly) won't be facing Bachman but I'm more curious to see who's in OUR net. Hopefully not Dubnyk. Canucks have a couple of offensive nuggets but if we have everything in order and players want to win, this will be ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
