GDT: 11/29/16 - Wild @ Canucks - 9 PM CT / 5 AM Suomi - FS-N - Family Feud Edition!

[melinko]

Only happens with Kuemper.

 

[FVM]

What a ****** loss.

 

[BigT2002]

Deserved that loss. Couldn't clear and many players did not look that good.

 

[Minnesota]

This team.

This team.

 

[Digitalbooya]

Interesting that Olofsson was out there with under a minute to go.

 

[Ceiu]

Telling moment of the night: Koivu and Grandlund both gliding casually toward the puck with the empty net and two Canucks not far behind them. Lazy effort.

 

[Jesus comma Brodin]

This team is an infuriating.

 

[FVM]

How can you score four goals and lose? ********.

[Wild Caniac]

On second thought, I don't think Kuemper lost this game for us. The team worked hard to get back in it, and then got gassed trying to preserve a point. He did what he could.

 

[Nsjohnson]

Way too relaxed defense in the 2nd and 3rd.

You just can't let another team run around your own end all night and do things like consistently fail to clear the puck. Yes Kemps gave up some rebounds but they had two or three lucky tips (though boy oh boy I wish the Wild could tip a puck or two) and then the Wild gifting them chance after chance.

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Kuemper has started 5 games. In 4 of them he has given up 3 or more goals.

Never should have had to work to get back in it. Should have been a 4-1 win.

Not saying it's Darcy's fault but those rebounds need to be controlled, it was horrendous all night.

If you blame the Goalie and D you're taking the easy way out. Forwards, third line aside, were MIA. The defensive coverage by the forwards and D was awful. Granlund had a chance to clear the puck on the last goal, but lost his balance for the umpteenth time tonight and couldn't get his stick on it. Parise is invisible. Fourth line is useless, with no jam. Koivu looks old.

I don't know what was going on with our net front coverage. We had people in front, but they sure weren't covering any Canucks. This is the fifth or sixth bad loss this year to a **** poor team.

 

[57special]

This woman can't talk. Why is she on TV?

Interesting that Olofsson was out there with under a minute to go.

I noticed that too. Seems like an odd decision, but at least he didn't look lost out there.

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

Bleep you Wild...give up 5 to a lottery team and you deserve to lose. What a pitiful effort. It's like they think being up 2-0 is good enough and you're able to coast to the end. Nothing from the leaders after it ends up 2-2...no Koivu, Parise, Suter. Defense was horrible. Scandella/Spurgeon were both bad. Dumba had some terrible plays. I just don't get it. It's not an exaggeration to say that Vancouver is horrendous. They are. Just an unacceptable loss and two points you let slip away. They should be pissed after this one.

 

[Wild11MN]

I don't really think effort was the problem. We controlled play for much of the night. It was the two PPGs and three deflections that did us in.

Unacceptable loss? Of course. Embarrassing effort? Not really.

 

[Wabit]

The team clears the net front for Dub so he can see shots. There was none of that tonight. No faith in Kemps from the team. He didn't play bad, just had no luck/help. PK and lack of PP lost the game.

Bigger teams still push our guys around. Scandella looks lost on the ice half the time.

3rd line was really good.

 

[Jesus comma Brodin]

I thought Dumba was extra bad.

I am 100% serious when I say put him at RW. He will be effective.

This woman can't talk. Why is she on TV?

I think it's self-explanatory if she has blonde hair, bleached white teeth, and other prominent features. After that, who cares about how she talks, conducts interviews, her knowledge of the game, etc.

 

[Wabit]

And she's paired with WW, who speaks about as well as Rocky Balboa.

I miss Jamie Hersch. Oh yeah, the game sucked too.

I assume this is Audra Martin you're referring to, and I agree. Her job description is literally "be able to talk" and she Cannot. Do. It.

Bleached blonde, also? I mean, I was cutting her some slack till she got settled down in her job, but it's finally getting to me, sort of like Greenlay.
