Can't win a Cup with two Dmen. Spurgeon Hunt and Middleton all need to go. Just awful. Absence of Brodin is profound.

The Wild will need to shore up the d zone in the offseason.  Their 3-6 d men are going to be the story of this playoff season.  Right after they get the game tying goal they get hemmed in on a bad shift and you could just tell it wasn't going to be their night.  Losing Brodin hurt like hell, but you need more out of Spurgeon.  Bogosian just throwing the puck up the wall that lead to goal #3 was a pee wee play.  Faber and Hughes can't play 35 minutes, just a recipe for disaster, especially when Colorado know that those guys are every other shift and can run the Mckinnon line accordingly.   

Rumor mill has the Oilers interested in Gus this offseason if he's willing to go there, not sure what they have for d men, but they've got to get something useful in return, especially on the back end.

The Oiler’s aren’t known for their defense

Brutal effort by the Wild.

After looking like true Cup contenders Saturday they then turn around in another must win they lay an egg. When your bottom 6 outperform your top 6 it usually doesn’t end well. They went nearly 20 minutes without a shot on net. Pathetic effort

Bouchard is the only thing you’d want from Edmonton’s defense.

Which one, playoff Bouchard or regular season Bouchard?

McDavid and  Draisaitl make up for the defense and whatever they call that goaltending

Jasper is easier to move than Gus. Wild having a $6.8 million goalie for the next 4 seasons, no one is taking that contract without a sweetener not even the Oilers. Oilers can just call the Kings who have too many goalies in their pipeline (Hampton should have stayed at WMU).

if the Wild sign Jasper long term they will have a very expensive net, next season is $9 million in the net. But Stan Bowman is a turd sandwich of a dumpster fire as a GM so why not another $5 million+ goalie

And you didn't even bring up Bogosian...time for him to submit his retirement papers.  Well out of his league.
