KoolGuy2K Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 First thing the Minnesota Wild need to change.....drop the Minnesota part. When it comes to the words Minnesota and Championships, they don't mesh well. Edit: That's ALL Minnesota professional sports. (Except those 2 Baseball ones.) Quote
The Sicatoka Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Nah. The Wild's fail surprised me. I expected them to make the epic comeback, win game five, and then go to Bridgestone and get obliterated. That would be more the Minnesota pro sports pattern: At the darkest hour give a shining glimmer of hope, only to completely and utterly dash it with a drop straight into sports obliteration Hell. 1 Quote

Oxbow6 Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 Matt Cullen is back with the Wild for another season. Great pick up! Quote

Veteran leadership, Cup cred, gritty center that can fill in in case of injury. I like it!! Go out as a 4 time Stanley Cup Champion and bring the Cup to Minnesota!!! 1 Quote

I know Matt and his family......he wouldn't have come back to the Wild if he didn't think they could make a run at the Cup although his family and boys played a big reason in returning to the Wild. Least I can bust out my #7 Cullen Wild sweater for one more season! 1 Quote

If anything an A. He reeks of leadership. Quote

sioux rube Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Dubnyk has now stopped 106 consecutive shots while going 195 minutes of shutout hockey. 3 shutouts in a row. A week ago he couldn’t stop a beachball. Ah the life of a goalie. 1 Quote

Of course, Zucker still scored, but at least he wasn't the only one Quote
sioux rube Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 Sounds like Coyle will be back next week. Quote
sioux rube Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Once again I’m proved right that the 3 goal lead is the worse lead in hockey. Teams let the foot off the peddle. Hell of a comeback by the boys even though I saw none of it. Quote

Oxbow6 Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Good win when Dubs wasn't at his best. 3rd period was very entertaining. Lots of good hockey plays on both sides. Quote
UNDMOORHEAD Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Watching the Wild play NJ and still can't believe a team as bad as COL let Butcher go for nothing. Quote
sioux rube Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 This team sure doesn’t play a real edge of your seat brand of hockey. Another snoozefest tonight so far. Quote
