Does he really enjoy being a sideshow bob on ice yet getting handsomely paid? Could the situation embarrass him? He must realize time has passed him or is he still in denial phase? Wouldn't surprise me if he decided to call it a day instead playing through his current contract. I FIRMLY believe that Suits and Parise still believe that they have GAME. They are narcissists (see the day they brought Adam Oates onto the ice for a Wild sanctioned practice), and the whining about line-mates, PP, and TOI. Moreover, when Suits said Kap 'was a good player' with a snarky tone after game 1 this year - that sealed it for me. These two have NO IDEA how sub-par their respective games are at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynxrattle Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 All the more reason to start using boobery instead of PP. Our PP causes no excitement these days. BB would - thanks to Kate Upton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great, Except it tells me our main 2 aren't consistent like the Av's top 2 lines. That's what make them a serious contender. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmptyShelf Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Welllll.....That's called getting GAME raped. Two games in a row. By a SUPERIOR team. Our 'little engine that could' with Kap more or less an Av-like player, is just not enough 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreaseAndAssist Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 Colorado Dominates the Wild in 6-0 Win & Series Sweep of Minnesota IMO, the games and the scores were 100% indicative of just how overmatched the Wild appeared in these games. It was all about star power and the Avalanche stars dominated in both games and the Wild looked slow and tired. Suter is starting to look slower and slower. Kahkonen gave up a few soft ones today and Minnesota was dead before we got 5 minutes into the game. After this week's slate of games the team finally gets a break and it certainly can use it because they are looking pretty fatigued these last two games. I have a full game recap, a Rask feature and prospect updates too. Enjoy! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and Parise are IMPOSSIBLE to miss on the ice just with their sub-par play (nvm their contracts). Their contribution at this point is just putrid. Additionally, the Wild have NO REASONABLE options with these two for FOUR MORE YEARS. How about an article on prospective buyouts or NBA-like 'contract dumps' for CL's butt-buddies? I am sure some of us on the board will help you write it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexandron Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 The last 3 minutes of the game the Wild did show some physical aggressive work, which I liked. This way how we should do for entire 120 minutes (in 2 games) against them and in the future as well. I was hoping to see during that game offensively minded Addison and Dewar, but they were not here. There were both very valuable games for us to look for something better, to make important conclusions and to work more in practicing too. Colorado commentators said that our players completely disappeared in a last 2 games. And I agreed with their note. But they were surprised that we were able to place 31 shots towards their net vs 42 into our net. Kahkonen stopped 36 shots. Still I think we gave them a chance to place 97 shots in 2 games, which is a lot as well as a lot 11 netted goals. Our defense should do a better job in this direction.

lynxrattle Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 These games should be the start of some serious soul searching, but we all know how it will go: "we have to forget about this game as soon as we can and concentrate on the next one". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I thought our game was actually getting sloppy in the 3 vs AZ. Not a very good tune up for what was knowingly coming vs the Av's.
