Alexandron Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Another not a simple team to play against. Panthers is a high scoring offensively minded team - 3.64 goals per game (1st in NHL). We should be defensively prepared for that game, like we played against the Lightning team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClusterChuck Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I would keep Stalock in net at least for this game. Dubnyk may be physically fine but mentally can't be 100% focused on the game until his personal issues with his wife are taken care of. I'd only use Dubs when Stalock could use a break at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IllaZilla Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 This is kind of interesting. #40 Devan Dubnyk (8-12-2) 3.35GAA .891%SP 1SO $4.3M AAV #72 Sergei Bobrovsky (17-12-2) 3.22GAA .898%SP 1SO $10M AAV Wild - 3.06 Goals For Per Game (14th in the NHL) Panthers - 3.64 Goals For Per Game (1st in the NHL) Wild - 3.27 Goals Against Per Game (26th in the NHL) Panthers - 3.26 Goals Against Per Game (25th in the NHL) Bobrovsky's lucky he's playing on a team with such a high powered offense. Imagine what his numbers would look like on the Wild... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russo reporting Stalock gets his third straight start...maybe the Devan Dubnyk era of starting 75% of the games is over... And no Koivu. Still sick. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreaseAndAssist Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 We looked even better when he wasn't centering the 4th line against Dallas. Donato can do two things Koivu can't do even when he's healthy...forecheck and shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point the Wild need to turn over the keys to the young guys... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually don't rip on announcers and commentators (unless they are truly horrid like Paul Steigerwald formerly of the Pittsburgh Penguins or Jack Edwards currently of the Bruins), but I gotta admit, Wes Walz does grate on me. I can honestly say, I learn NOTHING listening to him. Greenlay as color guy was just plain goofy....but Walz is a bit more insidious: He SOUNDS like he might have some valuable insight....till you really tune into what he is saying...……... I almost want Greenlay back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
