Yikes, Covid protocol! I'm all set up for the game. I definitely would want the game to played. What kind of Wild would we see on ice? Who would show leadership in a difficult point this season, now that Foligno is out and possibly Dumba too?

 

Thanks for the pregame, it reminded me of this haiku by Yosa Buson:

 

Blow of an ax

Scent of pine,

Winter woods

 

Anybody's who's used an axe in a snowy forest knows that you get sweaty pretty quickly. Let's hope they play, and play hard, but wisely. Getting too sweaty in a snowy forest might make one get a pretty bad cold.

My favorite line in the GDT..."My blood pressure doesn’t need more Ryan Suter."
😁

Well, I 'thought' I'd be able to see this on the TV but Noooo....NHL/NBCSN/DISH ....whoever deemed it "Unavailable in your area" 👿
Wasn't so Monday night on NBCSN.

Cam Talbot is a starting goalie for our team at 4:30 p.m. We need just a simple win against Ducks. Win is a win, 2 points are 2 points in every game.

Last night Colorado team lost in SO (4:5) when their backup goalie was in the net. Without Grubauer that team is beatable even with their top superb forwards.

According to Russo , Kirill Kaprizov's agent is in town to have a first talk with Bill Guerin regarding a new contract for Kirill. I think it will be not an easy negotiations for resolving well that important problem for our team.

My blood pressure is always high even without Ryan Suter (😧), especially, when I watch our team in action , but it is getting even higher when we(team) are not in action at all .

Grrr. My local Wendy’s is on my last nerve. For whatever reason, if part of our drive through order (at any fast food restaurant) gets messed up, it’s always mine. I ordered the bacon pub sandwich with crispy chicken. As the kid is handling me our order, I asked if everything was there because it looked a little light, and he assured me it was. I was at a stop light and double checked, and if course my sandwich is missing. Turned around and went back through drive through and requested my sandwich. Just got home. The moron gave me the new jalapeno popper chicken sandwich. I’m not amused.

Also Parise on Covid list so very surprised this game is being played

They have four players out and we have two (Hammond in addition to Parise). 
 

How have we forgotten the year of the mumps?

 

Damn.

Plus Montreal  just had 2 players put on covid and NHL immediately  postponed there next game and then next day postponed 2 or 3 more with only 2 guys on covid list still.
