(Insert name here) goaltenders are supposed to walk on water. It's the mentality up here. If 4-5 players earning half the salary cap can't score if they're grandma's life was on the line... Then it's up to the other 16 players dividing up the rest of the salary cap to carry the team. ^ And half of them seeing high percentage scoring chances better pass the puck to the $$ guys or else. It's in the water. Look at all the hell Kunin saw last game for passing the puck to Parise. Now skating in today he didn't pass the puck to Parise, instead he took a foolishly lame 40 foot shot. That too is the norm of 'what's in the water.' It's beyond nerve wracking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you hate crowded places, I suggest never going there. Besides, the Canadian border patrol at the Pembina crossing LOVE to tear American cars apart and turn a simple crossing into a 2-hour pit-stop on the prairie. If the Wild can kick their ass in their building, I wouldn't care if I had to crawl through a tin can to get in. (Why is this important?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Why is this important?) It's just odd for a new area to feel like you're packed into a sardine can.....and when you walk with a cane like I do, you feel like a walking accident waiting to happen.

rottenrefs Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 This just in: Bartkowski due to be sent back down to Iowa the minute this game is over. ^ Can I get an Amen on that prediction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icechipper Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I grew up and still live on the frozen prairies stretching and separating Winnipeg and MplsSt.Paul. Attended games at old Winnipeg Arena as well as Met Center. Going to be a crazy Canadian matinee game. If Wild can't beat em today, they can't in May. Drop the puck already.

hf101 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 44 minutes ago, MNSOTA said: With the lack of scoring, Dubnyk has to be much better than he's been playing. He's not tracking the puck like he used to. He's letting in softies. When your skaters can only manage 1-2 goals, he needs to be the ultimate last line of defense. There is only a handful of goalies who have played 25 or more games who have a better GAA than Dubnyk. (Rinne, Andersen, Gibson and Hutton) I'd say he is doing his job. He gives up 2 or less goals on most nights and that is enough to give your team a chance to win, that is basically all you can ask of your goalie. Of course, there are those game-saving saves, but he does do that. The Wild's issues aren't in net. If he was having a league average year the Wild would probably be sitting at the bottom of the central division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
