lynxrattle Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Let's back to skating. Fiala needs a hat trick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClusterChuck Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I do like the idea of just running lines on the PP instead of unit-1 and 2. Proof of sending players to the net, Get the puck there and create havoc. Way better chance than doing set plays for 90 seconds trying for 1 shot and a SportsCenter highlight goal.

Back to basics and moving one's feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Kaprizov needs at least one goal out of this game for boosting his energy. After he have got a face trauma during a game against LA he does not seems as active as he was before. Last game he had only few shifts. And this one not playing enough time too. Hope next 2 home games against Kings our team will be able to punish them. Why we don't put him together with Fiala and EEK(or Hartman) in the middle? Just for a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynxrattle Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 That is what I think as well. It seems clear that eventually Fiala and Kaprizov should be playing together. Why not start building the chemistry right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynxrattle Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 If only Rask had some skating speed... He would be a player. It's just his slowness. Otherwise a decent forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaprisov is still the best, most unselfish passer on this team. He has NOT really tried to shoot to be a top goal scorer yet. I think he is still trying to 'make friends, and make players' out of others that cannot do so themselves. Rask and Zucc gets goals merely because of KK. I would still like to see him shoot more. His skill is very high in either case. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynxrattle Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Kaprizov would create a lot more by shooting, indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaprisov is either getting the ''rookie" treatment by Evason ($hitty linemates generally), OR Evason recognizes that he is the best player on the team and can get anyone on the score sheet. It may be the latter. I am surprised that CL does not FORCE him out everyday with Parise in an effort to make him justify his contract with his suspect performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is the best passer that I have ever seen in 20 years of the Wild history. He is trying to feed every one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
