Wow! Three players with 80 or better penalty minutes. Mr. Kane with 110...

Well we won't see him.....he's been suspended three games for his elbow on Neal Pionk last night.

[MNSOTA]

How much do you want to bet that the organization had to EDIT the Zach Parise tribute video? It is beyond rare that one's current coach is not included in the video.

[Alexandron]

Wow. Zach's wife is like a beauty model. Nice, but too short Parise ceremony.

[Alexandron]

It seems Dumba have got a shoulder injury?

[Alexandron]

5 on 3 for the Sharks now.

Nice pressure by the Wild after killing a previous penalty.

[MNSOTA]

Yeah, the lines put out by Evason are so revolutionary. /endsarcasm

[MNSOTA]

The march to the penalty box, it's just so different than before. /endsarcasm.

[Alexandron]

Nice to see Dumba is back. It seems the Wild is moving their legs pretty well. But we should not get too many penalties.

[Alexandron]

Our 3rd successful penalty so far.

[Alexandron]

Stalock made a few good saves during the 1st period..

No score yet after the 1st. 0:0.

Does anyone recall an earlier shoulder injury on dumba. 
I know they’re hard to work through

Brisk sales tonight

Decided to come in for the second stanza. If you see a guy in a '67 Oakland Seals #5 VADNAIS sweater ... say hi.

[MNSOTA]

I should have taken a nap. And @Antti_Laxative, nice choice on today’s sweater.

Commentator said then, but he is back in a line and , probably, nothing too serious to worry .

Agree, it is a hard sticky play to work through plus a new head coach to adjust with players in both ways.

But both goalies after a 2nd intermission are still good. Hope, we will see some results at the end of the game. 

 

[Alexandron]

LOL #1.

[Alexandron]

Even if we lose that game, still is looking not bad for us. We out shot at this moment Sharks  36 to 20 in shots.

[Alexandron]

A couple Zuccarello's mistakes to focus.

[IllaZilla]

Boy, it is so apparent that Boudreau was the problem with this team...glad Guerin dropped the hammer when he did...

[MNSOTA]

That last power play...

[Alexandron]

Suter just saved the net.

[Alexandron]

EN LOL#2. We lost it by out shooting Sharks 39 vs 21 shots.

Jones was outstanding in ,practically, not giving any rebounds to Minnesota.

I’d like to ask Guerin if he thinks the team got his message...
