    Beat me to it. He will pay at some point. If not in this series, first game next year will be a bloodbath.

    Two dirty cheap shot cross checks in the back of Kaprizov by Suter now in game one. That second one stung. If one of the subsequent games gets lopsided one way or the other, I look for Reaves or Foligno to cut Suter in half with a bone crushing cross check that might bust a couple ribs.

    Sad to see the initial posts ITT during game 1. There is enough negativity in the world and on most threads on this board. This is a very good game by two very good teams. Face offs are even. The score is even. Dumba and Hartman can be both great and frustrating. But they are both giving...

    Sign Johansson to a 3 year deal now. He has scored over 20 goals only twice in his career. He won’t command a huge salary, would appreciate the stability and do for Boldy what Zucc does for Kaprizov - command attention and set him up! He CLEARLY has awesome chemistry with our other budding...

    Brutal. Such a weird play for him to even fall at all, or to get hurt. Then to have a 12 month injury? Gotta feel for the guy.

    I mean, he is a terrific skater, but, uhhh, this video isn’t displaying any sort of spectacular ability. However, he definitely uses the forward-backward-forward skating technique more than anyone I can remember. I started to try it out situationally in pond hockey and it can provide...

    Absolutely awesome game by Gustavsson, EE, Gaudreau and Steel. Tough as nails team.

    Gustavsson played out of his mind. Fantastic game to watch. Boldy is finally getting rewarded - he has been playing at a very high level for two months now, but only recently started logging some stats in line with that level of play. The addition of Johansson has been the partner he needed...

    They were also missing other key players, besides one of the best players in the league (Kaprizov): - Foligno - Brodin - Middleton - Duhaime - Nyquist (obviously a different situation from the others) I heard on KFAN some or all but Nyquist could be back tomorrow (Sunday).

    I didn't see the nutsack shot. Is someone saying that happened sometime prior to the melee after Hartman's goal?

    We will for sure see both. They have both been lights out good for the last month- these last two games notwithstanding. Unless there is a clear edge when the playoffs begin, I would bet 70/30 on game 1 MAF. I think it’s also obvious that Kaprizov being out has lit a fire under the team’s...

    See above. That isn't what the ruling was. Despite what the announcers were saying. You are completely allowed to do what you said you should be able to do.

    Barely. By like a few millimeters. Had Spurgeon passed the puck *after* the puck had completely crossed the blue line (into the offensive zone), it would have been onside. He gave up possession of the puck while it was still *on* the blue line, so the puck hadn't entered the zone yet. The...

    Minnesota wins yet another low-scoring, one goal game tonight, 2-1 vs the Canucks. Shots were lopsided in favor of the Wild. Fleury got the start and played well with the shots he had to deal with. The Wild seem to be relying on and settling in to a more defensive approach. Since Kaprizov is...

    Gustavsson was incredible again tonight. He's been on fire lately. Dozens of great saves. Shut them down in OT on several grade A chances and Islanders were 0-3 in the shootout. I just don't see how you can put Fleury out there in any big game at this point. I was PISSED when they started...
