Stall needs an empty netter, just to break his slump.

Look at that.

O great Swami

 

[NHL1674]

Finally...Staal!

 

[melinko]

Every game I appreciate Olofsson more and more.

We have 4 defenders that are exactly the type of player that teams like Colorado, Dallas, and Edmonton (last year) need.

Spurgeon, Suter, Brodin, and now Olofsson.

 

[Bruce Granville]

Finally an ENG...we were slumping.

 

[Minnesota]

Olofsson's looking better than Scandella tonight.

 

[Hall of Faber]

If I was a Vegas scout I would put all my credibly on Olofsson. He is going to be Brodin with more offense and much better offensive vision.

 

[melinko]

Stewart, don't get papa Bruce fined.

 

[BusQuets]

Havoc!

 

[BusQuets]

That linesman's face

 

[57special]

Doobs has been solid

[TaLoN]

THE Line is a +3 tonight... Nashville's top line... that had to face them most of the night? -4.

Or... should I say a combined +9 vs -12?

[57special]

Olofsson looks good, but his feet are nothing like Brodin's or Spurgeon's.

That's ****ing nuts

I'm not ready to say that. Lots of players have a good 10 game stretch then fall off a lot. I don't think he will, but want to see more. Much happier with Olofsson than Reilly (and Tuch).

Still wasn't a good game from the Wild as a whole, but I'll take the win and 2 points. On to the next.

 

[TaLoN]

We finally caught up to Chicago in games played! With that, we now have a clear 9 point lead on the Blackhawks!

Been watching Olofsson since his WJC. Kid has never disappointed. He has whatever "it" is.

 

[57special]

We could use one more guy to back up Stewart. That's one reason why getting Carter back would be good if he can still play. Schroeder is OK against teams like CHI and PIT, but teams like LA and ANA bring different challenges.

So far, I don't see Tuch bringing much physicality. Maybe once he gets more comfortable, but I don't think he's got that in his game.

He's not going to be as good defensively. His skating isn't nearly at Brodin's level.
