Like Toots will drop the gloves with Konopka....

no chance, especially with the wings up so much.

Anyone feel like Koivu tries to be too much of a team player when he's on a line with such talented wingers? He was much more assertive towards the goal when he was on a line with Mittens and Bruno. Wild need that Mikko

 

[behemolari]

okay i'm with the experimenters.

how about tanking for the 1st???

 

[BusQuets]

7,5mil well spent. nice suter

This. Tootoo is a grade turtler.

Also, I'm worried now. Real worried.

 

[tomgilbertfan]

yes, because 4 games into the season is enough to draw those silly conclusions. Still hurt egos.

ryan suter is literally worse than redden.

 

[NHL1674]

shaken. just like Hards.

Very much this.

 

[Fel 96]

Watch Yeo playing the 4th line more often now that the Wild will lose.

Parise-Granlund-Heatley

Parise-Granlund-Heatley
Bouchard-Koivu-Setoguchi
Cullen-Brodziak-Clutterbuck
Powe-Konopka-Mitchell

While I tend to agree with you, no way would Yeo ever seperate Parise and Koivu, just telling you that right now.

 

[NHL1674]

You have got to be kidding.

 

[llamapalooza]

Enlighten people, what should the lines be? I've made my feelings on lines clear.

Parise-Koivu-Heatley
Bouchard-Granlund-Zucker
Clutterbuck-Brodziak-Setoguchi
Mitchell-Konopka-Kassian

Brodin-Gilbert
Falk-Stoner
Suter-Dumba

 

[kitsumo]

Suter isn't offensive dman, why the hell is he being used like one? No wonder he's late in his own end when he's given offensive responsibility. And for god's sake don't put him in the PP anymore..

 

[bear1]

Can we trade Suter now

 

[TheeNorthStar]

If you think Granlund will be a #1.. Youre out of youre mind. Or fanboying super duper hard for MiG. Its not gonna happen.

 

[Fel 96]

Can we trade Suter now

...seriously?

 

[TaLoN]

While I tend to agree with you, no way would Yeo ever seperate Parise and Koivu, just telling you that right now.

But he SHOULD! Koivu isn't creative enough IMO, and he also doesn't have the will to go to the net like he used to now that's he playing with Parise. Get him away from Parise and we will start to see the more take charge Koivu.

 

[Sportsfan1]

You have got to be kidding.

More sane then some of these other people posting.

 

[tomgilbertfan]

So what I've gathered from this thread so far is that the sky is falling and Suter is the next Skoula.

 

[Dampland]

Minnesota Wild fans .....welcome to reality.

 

[Fel 96]

Fight!

 

[tyratoku]

Abdelkader and Falk?

Huh.

 

[State of Hockey]

Scrap!!

 

[Fin9*]

matt cullen. so horrible. WHY WHY WHY

You should't have to seperate the two though to get tha point accross as a coach.
