MNSOTA wrote up the game preview and I'll be on the post-gamer.  Columbus played last night, so will they be tired or look more energized than the Wild who practiced yesterday?  New lines with Mayhew getting a shot on the top line.  We'll see if that pays off or how long they stick to it.

Columbus should get the win just because they have a goaltender named Elvis.

 

Anyways, it's Mardi Gras and I have better things to do than watch the NHL's version of Tuna Hot Dish take on a decimated Blue Jackets team...Laissez les bons temps rouler!

Koivu Scores Twice as Wild Narrowly Edge Columbus, 5-4

 

(sigh)  Far more of a nailbiter than it had to be.  Like the Sharks, this team was absolutely decimated by injuries yet we almost found a way to lose it.  4th line won the day.  I have a full game recap, an extended Iowa Wild report and prospect news too!  Check it out!

Probably, it will be not easy to play against them in Columbus this coming  Friday too despite of all their Blue Jackets team's injuries.

LIG, Thanks for the report on our prospects also. Khovanov has now 88 points(31 goals;57 assists; +/- +45) in 44 games. And Kaprizov  leads KHL with 32 goals;60 points in 56 games.
