    And since they are breaking huddle with only 10-12 seconds remaining on the play clock, that gives very little time for an inexperienced QB to make reads and alter protection or the play. They should try a more hurry-up style of play calling, so he can stand there and look at the defense...

    Reactionary much? I highly doubt this rumor is credible.

    Taylor Fritz is currently ranked #4 at age 27. Ben Shelton is ranked #6 at age 22. If either were a player in any team sport (e.g., NFL, MLB, NHL, NBA), you would be calling them elite. Or are there only 3 or less elite players in each of those sports?

    Is there anything prohibiting a significant rise in pay in years 4-8, if they were to want to sign him long term? Stay below the cap until it rises. Same $$ (maybe have to do time-value of money calculation), but spread out to the advantage of the team. Why couldn't they offer him that and...

    CBS is ending ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’ next year

    Kilby is on Barriero about once a month. You can podcast episodes he's in. He's a massive T-Wolves fan and he and Barriero get along quite well. Always a fun segment. He's even been in studio. Kilby is also doing some podcast thing of his own that I haven't yet checked out. Might not be...

    Definitely the MVP, if Florida wins, I agree.

    “MoJo”? Haven’t heard that one. Johansson had a decent season and is taking a $1.2 MM pay cut. He will turn 35 in October. Feels like a good deal for the Wild, if he can stay healthy. By comparison, he earned $9MM in 19-20 + 20-21 for Buffalo. Wild probably overpaid in 23-24 for 2 years x $2MM.

    Kaprizov - and nobody else on the Wild, for that matter - got “run into the ground”. Our top players were not overused. Double shifting Kaprizov (and Boldy tonight) wasn’t dumb. It was smart. Very smart. I seriously question if anyone watching closely and saying these dumb-assed things ever...

    I think there’s a chance we are up 3-1 right now without the Buium experiment. I’m confident he will be a great player. And I understand using him. But not on PP1. Sparingly. And I would have played Chisholm or Merril in front of him after game 1.

    That’s an excellent ad. Wonder how much a nicely loaded model is. And how industrial strength all the interchangeable parts are. Interesting idea and innovative.

    In the post-game presser, Cassidy indicated nothing had changed in that regard. I would expect Hill back in net on Saturday.
