    Well this game blows, so maybe this reminder note I found while surfing nhl.com will cheer you up: Marat Khusnutdinov NOTES & TRANSACTIONS Traded to Boston by Minnesota with Jakub Lauko and a 6th-round pick in the 2026 NHL Draft for Justin Brazeau, March 6, 2025.

    I see, that makes sense. In that case, I agree with your original statement.

    Per ChatGPT, completely blown play by Sharp (his 2nd in two possessions): Q: so, he can jump to get the defender in the air, put the ball on the floor, before a foot touches and continue dribbling? A: Yes, that is correct! As long as the player begins their dribble (releases the ball to the...

    FINALLY, we beat Oettinger. 3-2 in OT on a terrific passing play on a 4-on-3 PP.

    I’m only going by the data you posted. But if Calgary needed to win three more games than the Wild and Calgary had seven games remaining and the Wild had five games remaining, what would happen if both teams won all of their remaining games?

    That’s not controlling their own destiny. But the data is interesting nonetheless.

    He came damned close, after they restored the goalie - after the empty netter - to getting the hatty to break the record. One Grade A look (which he held the puck on?) and a couple sniper tries. Would have been epic.

    Gus blew it on the OT goal. Chisholm blew it on a goal. Johansson is playing extremely well. Bunch of sloppy penalties, but one sweet shorty and almost another. With all that and no Ek or Kaprizov, I’ll definitely take the point.

    Niko’s roster construction

    Interesting insight. Question: Would it be legal for the NCAA to reinstate the one year sit out transfer rule? In my opinion, this is what ruins it. College players have more freedom than professional players. Forcing an athlete to sit out an entire year if they want to transfer would obviously...

    Niko’s roster construction

    Don’t worry. It’s already happening. If they don’t kill the no-sit transfer, it’s over - the best days are behind.

    Is Niko coming to MN?

    Yeah, if that’s what it takes to win, no thanks. Shameful post.

    Great defensive effort. Great game-winner by Zucci. Boldy made a great play to corral a bad pass from Hartman, then threading the needle to feed Zucc.

    It’s not better to miss the playoffs. And it will get better when Kaprizov and Ek return. But it won’t be due to magic. It will be because they are our two most important players. I think Hines should put Boldy on a line with Johansson and see if they can’t click like when Johansson first...

    Matty was buzzing yesterday. Nice to see. Maybe the shootout game winner will build his confidence. Gus played great. Gotta stack up some more of these pinups and get the big boys back off the injured list.

    Boldy has not played as well as earlier in the season of late. He almost looks tired. Hopefully the line with Rossi and the new energy of Nyquist can light him up a little.

    2024-25 Wild Season

    Yeah, a little bit. Our offense was pretty good, once we got the damned puck out of our own end. But Seattle was dominant at our end of the ice in the 2nd half of the game. It looked like a power play half the time. Defensively, we were chasing all over the D-zone. Positives were Johansson...

    I don’t think that charge was questionable at all. Absolutely the right call. Yep

    Exhibit A for love-hate on this stupid thing. Spot on. Please - no Wild injuries.
