[GopherState]

Tanguay....STONED BY BACKSTROM!

WILD WIN! WILD WIN! ANOTHER WIN ON THE ROAD TO 48-0!!!!

 

[Kaptain]

Yes! WILD WIN! BACKs!

 

[Nino Noderreiter]

Again not too toot my own horn but what did I say about their goalie biting on the first move...?

 

[Wild48]

All Backstrom does is win shootouts

 

[pond_hockey]

Well at least we can score goals in the shootout.

Nice saves by Backs in the SO.

 

[TheeNorthStar]

THANK YOU! 2 puntos!

 

[SPMaximus]

must have been the first time in his career that koivu didnt go backhand

 

[Kaptain]

I can sleep in peace.

 

[rynryn]

backstrom sucks. trade everyone! rant! rant! rant!


on the plus side i don't feel bad about giving Calgary a point.

 

[State of Hockey]

Wins like these only confirm that this team is not a serious contender.

 

[tyratoku]

Nice!

 

[Billy Mays Here*]

I'll take the win but this team needs to start scoring or else the tank is inevitable. Giving divisional rivals extra points isn't a good idea either.

 

[jedisports]

Horribly boring game, we still cannot score in regulation but who cares for tonight, we have won two in a row and are at least getting out of the losing streak. We have to figure out a way to score though and fast.

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Koivu and Parise are beautiful people.

 

[StealthClobber]

Lol Konopka hugging Backs and raising him up

 

[Jaykay]

must have been the first time in his career that koivu didnt go backhand

He sold it well, great move

 

[Tony253]

Those that stuck through from the start deserve two points as well...that was an ugly game.

 

[rynryn]

Again not too toot my own horn but what did I say about their goalie biting on the first move...?

you called it alright.

 

[ewoksonhoth]

I'll take that. One of the uglier games I've watched, but I'll take it.

 

[Sportsfan1]

Least we got the scoring in the shootout down, however:

Michael Russo‏@Russostrib: #mnwild went 10 minutes, 8 minutes and 12 minute stretches without shots tonight

 

[Jaykay]

Anyone else hear Hanneman say "the Wild keep the momentum going!"

 

[NHL1674]

WTG, Backstrom. Job well done in the shootout. Surprised the #@$! out of me.

IMO, Wild have nothing to lose against the Canucks. Nobody in their right mind would look at the stats and think that this team is capable of winning in Vancouver right now. And with zero expectations, that could make them VERY dangerous people. They need to realize that and turn this next game into a "statement" game. I don't care if you lose. Just leave it all out on the ice. Score some #@$!ing goals. Luongo is in net. Pretend you're in St. Paul.

 

[W75]

Win, 2 pts.

 

[INTOTHEVOID]

Thank you based Backstrom.

 

[FVM]

Awesome shootout. Bäckström, Parise and Koivu were all money when it counted. Really important win. The offense must get going though, this is painful to watch.
