Looks like you would have to sell out pretty hard to stop it, thing is basically tucked right behind the crossbar.

Exactly, you have to sell out to stop either. If you guess right your golden, if you guess wrong, the only thing stopping Mikko from scoring is Mikko's own accuracy.

 

[Victorious Secret]

That one feels good.

 

[Bullrun]

Wild win 4-5!

How can goalies not stop Koivu in the shootout? He does the same move every time...

Ecstatic we won thou, lol.

Also how did Spurg get hurt?

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Great win. Koivu line was awesome tonight, by far Mikko's best game.

 

[NHL1674]

They literally stole a point. Considering the turnovers and Kemps struggling a bit....and the legit goal that they waived off against the Sharks earlier in the game.....damn.

Hit into the boards by Pavelski; looked like his shoulder.

 

[57special]

Goalie redeems self.

 

[Minnesota]

Guaranteed we'll see Zucker - Koivu - Coyle again.

Koivu has 2 moves. His backhand and his forehand. They start out identical but finish in VERY different places. The goalie has a 50/50 chance on guessing which move he does, if he guesses right, he's golden... if he guesses wrong, he's way out of position leaving it down to just Mikko's accuracy.

It wasn't legit, Couture made contact in the crease.

 

[Generic User]

Almost 50 SOG for the Wild. Crazy.

Yup. A couple years ago it would've been reversed. Was crazy seeing 42-24 in shots in the 3rd.

Good win. Earned that one.

 

[The Enemy Within]

So good to see us come back from down two goals once again. Definitely shows a lot of heart. Absolutely couldn't believe my eyes seeing Brodziak scoring two goals in the same game. lol Wow.. What a gam. Way to go Wild. Came up big in the end. Now let's just beat the Stars on Saturday.

 

[57special]

Was Nino out also?

I have to say that having Brodz around for depth has been invaluable. Makes me think that we shouldn't let him go, no matter what.

He also has a history of playing his best in a contract year.

Zucker was great, also.

Don't we have anyone better than Viellieux to bring up?

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Pretty sure Nino was benched.

Nino was out for a time, but came back.

Hopefully Cooke is back Saturday.

Another 3rd period comeback. This team has some heart.

Thanks. Well then hoping for quick and speedy recovery with Spurg and Brodin, I can't take much more of watching Falk in a Wild jersey. Great person, but not anywhere close to a NHL caliber defensemen.

 

[TaLoN]

Pretty sure Nino was benched.

No, it was Veilleux who was benched late. Vanek was taking his shifts too.

Weird.

Looks like Nino is on bench but benched....No Spurgeon

Went back and gif'd the 2nd Brodz goal

 

[Avder]

Happy dance!

 

[BusQuets]

Great win. Good for Koivu and Vanek to step up when 1st line was out of sync. Not to forgot Brodz of course

Oh that fluttering saucer! Granlund's flutter is apparently contagious!
