[Nino Noderreiter]

God bless Garth Snow

Somebody make this man a statue somewhere in the Xcel

 

[Lapa]

So happy for Kuemper after his struggles. Love the confidence in the shootout with that little cocky puck flip!!

Someone should make a .gif of that. That was awesome.

 

[Boogardsfist]

I just slapped my face with both palms, we have2 one the road with ou current line up for the next... I have faith!

 

[Soldier13Fox]

His whole on ice demeanor was so much more confident than earlier this season.

Big time. I remember thinking in his earlier appearances (even before he took a shot) that he looks like he's about to cry. Definately don't think I'm ready to join the Darcy fan club ... But I'm very impressed and I hope the next game he is in shows that this wasn't a fluke and he maintains the confidence.

 

[SillyBilly]

Told ya that this kid can shoot.

If Kuemper keeps this up

WE HAVE A CHANCE!

 

[Northland Wild Man]

So I caught some of the beyond the pond or whatever the radio show is called on Saturday morning. Walz was on there talking about defending for long periods of time in your own zone against teams with more skill and how Lemaire coached that when he played.

Yeo might be getting advice from Walz judging by the game tonight.

These type of wins aren't sustainable, but with a lot of the big guns out we might have to get used to this type of game.

Gritty win, grind it out win. Yeo you have 3 missions. Keep Nino-Granlund-Pom together. Get Nino as much ice time as possible. Do not let Coyle play center. Thank you. That is all.

That's what it's gonna come down to. We're limping. We have more depth this time around, but we lost some key cogs in the machine. Expectations are pretty dang low. Time to scratch and claw, hope for some puck luck, and grind out some wins trying to stay afloat.

Though I'll admit, it is a little fun watching the kids fly around a little more unleashed.

 

[Boogardsfist]

Darcy must have a SUPER high right now!

 

[LA_Viking]

Kingslol....1 win in 7.

Great game by Kuemper. Leave it to the Kings to make the guy look like an Allstar.

Did the Wild officially pass the torch to LA for the most boring team in the NHL? Cuz that's what's hapnin'. lol

Hi.

EDIT:

Misread your comment before. It's all good. My bad.

 

[Boogardsfist]

I can't stop laughing! I bow my head to Darcy!

hopefully parise will be skating soon...

Team owes Nino and Kemps a free dinner.

Yeo owes a free dinner for everyone.

 

[NHL1674]

Russo mentioning how Kemp appeared different at morning skate from his past starts.

@BMileskiKFAN You could see it this morning. Usually jittery on his starts. Today shooting the breeze

Whatever he did different, keep it up. I'm not sold yet. It's only one game. Backstrom can be good for one game. But he earned some praise tonight.

 

[youvegotit]

Hopefully he comes back close to or 100%.


Also hope we don't send Zucker down when Parise comes back because of Heatley.

 

[Jaykay]

Happy about the win, even happier for no longer looking like an idiot for being a huge Kuemper supporter.

It's just one game though.

it may be only one game but the kid was completely overwhelmed last time he played. Just good to see, especially with the health concerns of our other two goalies.

 

[Lapa]

Agreed. If someone needs to be sent down, it should be either Coyle or Haula.

amen to that. Just send Haula down and put Coyle at 3rd line center. Brodz shouldn't make it off the fourth line for quite some time.

 

[Wild Caniac]

Based on tonight, I wouldn't be too upset to see Kuemper live on Saturday.

He had better start.

 

[Lapa]

Kopitar the 1st star?

Home team bias.

I lol'd at that, Nino not in the top three...
