Also what in the hell was Seto thinking with that cross check to the face?
I was expecting like a 5 minute major/thrown out of the game/suspension..
Did you see the replay? Obviously unintentional.

Why did Brodin only play 17 minutes?
I don't think I've ever seen a more invisible player than Cullen this year. Not that it's a bad thing, but I hardly ever notice him. He's not making plays or creating much offense, but at the same time he's not turning the puck over or effing up defensively either. The guy seems like he's stuck in limbo.
Cullen plays better at center, and Brodziak has been struggling in both the defensive and offensive zones. I'd have Cullen center the 3rd line to take the defensive pressure off of Brodziak's shoulders, put Brodziak on Cullen's wing. If you need Brodziak's right handedness in a faceoff, he can take the faceoff in the right circle, then move back to the wing after the faceoff.

Holy crap! All this time I was thinking Brodziak was a lefty for some reason. Interesting. . .

Granlund better be centering that 2nd line thursday. He's been clearly out playing Cullen and Brodziak now.

I have no problem with Russo between periods, calling out Mikko. What I do have a problem with is him not calling out the Baby Jesus Parise. But he won't do it because he's local, he never says anything about one of his/fan favorites, he's media-friendly, etc.
Second line was okay, just so streaky. That should be a third line. Third line should be the fourth line. We need a real second line full of real NHL players with offensive ability and CONSISTENCY to control the puck.
and even then that was possible because we didn't have a first line--only a Gaborik.Come to think of it, we haven't had a second line since Rolston-White-Bouchard. Coincidentally, that was also the year we won the division...

We had Demitra, so 2/3 of a first line, with whoever was plugger of the month...
Nice to see a win, it's been really rough. Of course, Wild play one game in six days so no way to capitalize on any momentum. Thought there was a condensed schedule? Seems like the Wild's barely played the last two weeks.
