Post-Game Talk: Thanksgiving Holiday Massacre: The Sequel (Wild 6 Jets 1)

[Dr Amazing204]

The Hurricanes got shutout by the Coyotes today so it's not all that bad.

Coelacanth of the game

Big David Gustaffson

He played a decent game.

 

[Potential]

That was a tad embarrassing, they'll be better next game.

Yeah, they'll be back, so this game, while annoying, is really a nothingburger.

Right now it's about playing .500 hockey until we have some of the guys back from injury. Good time to try some of the younger players more to see what they can do.

 

[None]

4th line looked good, and not just in a sheltered role. They were out against Kaprizov a few times and did as well as any other line against him.

Handily beat all of their matchups 5 on 5.

 

[Zippity]

Did the blue jackets get to do a few interviews at least?

 

[GNP]

Gobble, Gobble Goggle, the Jets played like a bunch of turkeys this US Thanksgiving holiday.

 

[Atoyot]

With the lineup the Wild iced a bad game would have been losing by one or two. Perfetti the only player to play less than 10 minutes. He had a rough game, as did Ville.

 

[Guardian17]

I will say those Minnesota North Stars jerseys the Wild were wearing were nice.

 

[GNP]

It's a shame we don't have smooth talking Maurice to give us some soothing lip service after this blowout, to make us all feel better. He was great at that.

 

[Finnflash]

I am thoroughly disappointed in the last few days of sports

 

[Weezeric]

I knew this was a loss after the opening face off where Dubois was bloodied with a high stick and there was no penalty. Seriously, it’s the opening Facebook. Two refs on the ice, what are they looking at!?!

Oh my god I would have had a coronary!

 

[CorgisPer60]

Hm. It was about this time last year when it went off the rails too. The drubbing was real tonight. let's hope that it's just a blip. No one was good.

 

[Jetfaninflorida]

Wow. I'll just pretend I never saw that.

Need a solid bounce back game.

G J G !

I understand the concern, but we're missing a third of our team, and much of them are our speed players, which sets up the rest of the systems Bones wants us to play. We're a little discombobulated right now, and are trying to scrape by. We'll be better.

 

[heretik27]

It’s yours, I’m 0-4 this year …..

What ever happened to Plain Jane? I thought she was our good luck charm.

 

[macmaroon]

It’s yours, I’m 0-4 this year …..

You're only 0-3...Don't make it sound worse than it is...

 

[Gabe Kupari]

We need a top 6 winger. The fun part of this season is gonna be when it goes off the rails, who steps up and who is shipped out.

 

[GNP]

Wow. I'll just pretend I never saw that.

Need a solid bounce back game.

G J G !

I definitely think we'll see a totally different team this Friday against Dallas. I'll bet the Jets come out with great intensity, and win that one.

It's not like the Wild were icing the greatest lineup though

 

[kanadalainen]

This game hangs like a hex on a barn.

So imma throw out some Clutch. Its normally a victory song, but the sheer abandon of it brings a modicum of joy.

 

[macmaroon]

That was one turkey of a game...

The prediction contest for the game against the Dallas Stars has now been posted with an up-to-date leaderboard (only three points awarded). Don't forget to sign up to make a GDT. It's a lot of fun and you can be as creative as you would like. Thanks @Ginger Papa for volunteering to make the GDT for the Dallas "Don't Call Us North" Stars game, we all look forward to it!

 

[GNP]

Get rid of Tiny Heiny for the Stars game this Friday, he's just not physical enough. Be nice to have Demelo back. Trade away Tiny Heiny.

 

[raideralex99]

some how 5v5 we had more then double their scoring chances and more high danger chances and won the xgf battle....

I only saw the third period … the jets did not look as bad as the score indicated. This is a game where you say on to the next one.
Strange night in hockey tonight Devils getting their goals called back , the Wild getting away infractions makes you wonder now with all these betting commercials who the big winners are.

 

[tbcwpg]

Wild looked good in both uniform and on ice play.

This won't go over well in the next Athletic Power Rankings article!
