The Wild need to find a way to win in regulation tonight if they really want to show fans, the front office they shouldn't just conduct a firesale right now. Or, we could get blown out again...and fans will be more than happy to watch this whole thing be burned to the ground. Will Chicago play Seeler? Enjoy and discuss... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandron Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 According to Michael Russo twitter -Alex Stalock is going to be in our net tonight and Nick Seeler will be playing against us. Russo also published there a very nice picture of Kaprizov sitting around Husky dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandron Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 (edited) Interesting fact, both our goalies (Stalock and Dubnyk) played an equal amount of games this season: 25 games each. Never happened that before. It should be a must win game in front of our fans on our home ice arena. Hope, the entire team will help to goalie to get the win and be playing hard and smart all 60 minutes a game. The top Chicago players should be well neutralized by our defense. Enough embarrassing on our ice. Still prefer to see in the top lines Zucker-Staal-Zuccarello and Parise - Kunin- Fiala to give more speed and mobility to both top lines instead of to see Parise at the first line. It seems he played better at the second line with Fiala duo. Edited February 5, 2020 by Alexandron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was that, and we cut our cable. So I was panicking because I couldn't get my basement Roku to pick up NBCSports. I probably should have checked it out before I offered to cover for Derek...
