Nice GDT.

The Wild bounces back. 3-2 OT win. Stoner, of all people, scores the game winner.

 

[Minnesota]

Love this picture.

 

[Karl]

Best part about this shortened season is that their are less days off to dwell over losses. Wild will bounce back and have a complete game. Wild win 5-1.

I am also expecting a big night from a rested Backstrom, he is going to have to be a workhorse for this team dow the stretch. Well unless Harding can get back to feeling healthy and rested to give Backstrom some nights off.

 

[BusQuets]

Really curious to see What's Kings level this season.

 

[Dampland]

I sense the beginning of a rough patch for the Wild. LA wins 4-1

 

[ewoksonhoth]

Just woke up to my uncle calling me to tell me he snaked two lower bowl tickets and can't go tonight. Guess I need to find a date for the evening.

 

[Kaptain]

This game is big. Need to bounce back.
I had no idea Quick's save % was that horrible.
Wild lose 3-2.

 

[Quicy]

This game is big. Need to bounce back.
I had no idea Quick's save % was that horrible.
Wild lose 3-2.

Sounds like he's been pretty inconsistent this year. Their coach was saying other teams have adjusted to him and now he needs to make changes.

 

[MNWILDFAN001]

Last game was not good. I think the Wild continue to struggle and lose tonight too.
Final score 4-2.

 

[TheSlovenian]

It's should be a great game. Lets hope for a clean and awesome 60 minutes. Cheers.

 

[Karl]

I like the reverse jinxing going on in this thread! Keep it up people!

 

[Northland Wild Man]

Backstrom is back. I think the Wild will be fine tonight.

 

[LordFletcher]

I don't like seeing some of you trying to stop the party.

Wild win 8-0. Brodin with 6 goals, Suter getting two assists on each of them with a total of 12 for the game. Parise and Seto scoring as well.

[DeuceMN]

I have no idea what to think of this game?!

If we're still too much of the old Wild team, we lose 4-2.

If we're truly not htat old Wild team, and are becoming a real winning team, we'll bounceback, come out with fire and win in our barn, because we'll be pissed; Wild win 4-2.

 

[MuckOG]

I'm not feeling good about this game...I hope I'm wrong.

Kings win 3-1.

 

[JimLahey]

wild win 3-2 in overtime, brodin, parise, and koivu. corn dogs for everyone

 

[Fel 96]

Hopefully they will find a way to win.

 

[jedisports]

I am confused as to how things will turn out tonight. I think it's possible we bounce back, I think it's possible we don't show up.

I hope we bounce back because things are close enough in the playoff race for us to lose a couple and be on the outside looking in. We cannot let that happen.

 

[DeuceMN]

If we're the team we want to be, we win tonight.

These guys need to show up angry, and make the Kings pay for coming to our home

I want them to kick ass tonight.

If they don't show up I'll be sad

 

[Karl]

This is one of the gut check games to measure where the Wild are. Great teams rise up to the challenge, especially from the defending champs. The time for the Wild to jump into that contending spot is now.

 

[Caior89]

Big game tonight! Going to be really hard to beat the kings, hope we find a way.

 

[Emilie]

This is one of the gut check games to measure where the Wild are. Great teams rise up to the challenge, especially from the defending champs. The time for the Wild to jump into that contending spot is now.

Cue Lana "YUUUUUUUP"

If the team that won 7 in a row shows up, they've got this in the bag. If the team that played last night shows up, they're in for some trouble. Wild have done a good job of bouncing back this season, so my fingers are crossed that they'll be fine

 

[Sharppi]

Game 2 of the 10 game losing streak. Kings win 10-0.

 

[Avder]

I think this game is determined in the first period. If we come out and play like we did last week, all is well with the world and we can look forward to a good win.

Otherwise, if the old Wild shows up, we are boned.
