We've got to get more out of our top guys.  A good early butt kicking for the Green team.

We've got to bear down on the chances.  Close was very good, but We've got to pick corners and not kill the logo.

Better team won the game.  See how we respond tomorrow.

This is a huge rivalry for us fans (especially those of use that have been fans for years). But for these young guys, it is just another game, despite the lip service they gave before the game. I wish there was a way to somehow get these young players to understand the importance of the cross conference rivalries. Maybe Motz has figured this out? They certainly took the home rink advantage out of the picture.

When you play one solid period against a good team this is the result you get.

Seemed like we were completely on our heels the 2nd and 3rd and after hearing Jackson's comments after the 1st something like "we saw how quick they can counter attack and really gotta be aware/defend that". It was like we were so scared to make a mistake that they would counter that our attack level really went down. This is a team that has to play on their toes and be the attackers, not sit in the neutral zone and look to counter off a turnover. There is too much offensive talent for what we saw tonight.

Our guys settled to just play on the outside instead of trying to play through a body and get to the tough areas.

Gaber might've been our worst forward. Need way more from an experienced leader.

Persson was pretty solid.

Our PP has looked awful in all 3 games.

Too many guys that looked like they didn't want the puck, way too man giveaways and just sloppy lackadaisical play.

Minnesota played harder tonight and was the better team and got the result they deserved.

I know it’s very early but this game stunk. We looked slow and unable to pass the puck and move our feet.  Embarrassing. I don’t think there was even one difficult save that Close had to make. 
Need to win tomorrow so we’re not digging ourselves a hole. Failure to make the NC$$ tourney this year should mark the end of the Brad Berry era. Tomorrow should tell us quite a bit about this team.
