tnt Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 3 hours ago, Goon said: And their season ends this week. What I am saying is, the Wild have a lot of work to do if they’re going to get to the level where they’re a Cup contender. Look what Vegas did to the Avs. You could make the argument they’re not even to the Islanders level. ...and this Vegas team has their hands full with a team that has some old castoffs, that plays a defensive system and are in the mix for a cup. They and the Islanders are Cup contenders if they’ve come this far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen4sioux Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 So the wild get the kid for 4 and half years... obviously they will trade him for something before losing him.

You should know better, everyone should know better. NO, the russian kid does not want to be in MN, nobody wants to be in MN. He didnt come until he could do a short entry level, he signed this contract to get out after five miseable years of futile failure... but really four and a half cause he'll get a trade to a contender then. Of course its an Agent driven deal, he's got a decent agent, who will get him out of MN asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBA doesn’t exist in our house. No doubt Minnesota is loserville USA There is hope for you yet! I will preach the gospel of redemption... Denying the existence of the t-dogs is step one. Its easy to do, nobody. ares and they've always been crap. I'll admit it gets difficult from there... just stop paying attention to the summer team, its tough, keep that comfortable TC hat for now, its ok to just hang onto it, but dont stop at the nightly drubbing on tv and keep them off the radio too, tougher If you farm, its easy to tune in and listen to something thats even more pathetic than the drought stricken crops in front of you. Stop paying attention awhile and you find yourself not knowing who any of them are not as interested. It takes time, the TC hat will be the last thing to go. The football team, this takes help and understanding the pain of the past, why it happenes and the breakthrough comes when you know it will happen again. Then you start hearing the excuses that others make and realizing you had been making them yourself. You dont want to live like that anymore. So you need to take up fall hiking or hunting or anything that keeps you away from the TV. As you get back to reality or turn on the radio you find out the fumbled and lost or of course, missed the fg... you smirk and laugh inside with the comfort knowing rhat the old you would have been gnashing teeth in anguish. You are almost free now, you have more time on weekends, your relationships are better, you save money on purple gear. It is an existential experience once you know you are free. After this the hockey team is easy to see through and the only interest you have is who they play or the former Sioux passing through the roster, whichbis easier ad they have never drafted Sioux commit or alum. Now its time to remeber and realize you dont care about the twinkies anymore and you find yourself not even reaching for that comfortable old TC hat. You are free. Rejoice... Now..... if you had ever been invested in the any of the UMtc teams..... well none of this applies, you're too stupid to save and there is no hope. Good luck in your life.

I don’t take the results of a sporting event to seriously like I did in my younger years. Not good for my health in my later years. I still coach hockey and have for nearly 40 years now and kids I coached way back then would not believe how I’ve mellowed now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sioux rube Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Wild win a thriller in their opening game of the season over the Ducks last night 2-1. Foligno with the winner with 7.2 seconds left in the game. Kings tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux rube Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 2 game sweep in Cali after beating LA last night 3-2. One thing this team has more of and that’s grit and toughness.

sioux rube Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 This years Wild team is so fun to watch. Guerin knew what he was doing when he let Suter and Parise go. Young guns are doing well and Hartman so far has been a complete steal. 12 goals so far. 14-6-1 and in first place in the Central Division 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really thought the Wild were in trouble after not converting on the 1:45 5x3 advantage. Great win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
