The Wild are toast, don’t see much chance for them to win the series.  Not a fan of Dean Evason, I think he made a major blunder by switching goalies for game 2.  I don’t care what they did in the regular season rotating goalies, when your goalie plays as well as Gustavsson did in game 1 there is no way in hell you change goalies for game 2.  Just a really, really stupid move.

I agree on Dean.  A team takes on the persona of their coach.  Settle the eff down.  The Wild have lost their composure.

I’ve never been an Evanson fan. They lose this series I got to think Guerin may look elsewhere

Guerin has some blame for that. He’s got a hard on for the flower.

Think Evanson has bought into the only problem the last game was the reffing and while it was the big problem that doesn't mean you can't adjust anything. Seems like a real stubborn guy to me. Zuccarello has sucked for about a month outside of a game here or there how about moving him down and Nyquist up with Kaprizov? Dallas pressures hard high on the PP maybe work the PP down low instead of trying to force through it? And whoever has the PK has been atrocious in the last 2 playoffs.

Agree I would have went back with Gus game 2 but will not be surprised if Fleury gets game 6 Friday, Gus has been pretty shaky handling anything these last 2 games.

Foligno 5 minute major for kneeing and out of game. Dallas scored one on that power play then another on a different power play. Special teams or lack of are killing the Wild 

Foligno has to be better after game 4. Put his team in a tough spot right away in the first period.

Also what happened to Kaprizov???  Dude can't have 1 point in a playoff series.  Either he is hurt more than they are letting on or he disappeared big time.  

Kaprizov has 1g 0a, Boldy has 0g 3a. They're going to need more from the guys that were the top two goal scorers in the regular season.

He seems to really struggle when when the physical play ratchets up.

In case you haven't seen it, here is the goal Brock Nelson scored off a defending player's puck to the face.

Was watching live ... had sympathetic pain from 1500 miles. 

" ... just 5 or 6 stitches ... "  ... < cringe > ...

This may be melodramatic ... however, last night may have significant Cup ramifications.

If BOS had won last night they're resting; instead they may end up going seven and
TOR could be the team watching their next round opponent play while they rest. 

If Marchand had scored with 2 seconds left I'd say BOS is on cruise control to a Cup.
It is a very different world right now for BOS.

Toronto has 5 minutes to score 2 to tie it up with the Bolts. Not looking good for prolonged rest
