#mnwild optional. 4 guys not skating. 1 is Coyle. 21yo is not taking his 2nd morning skate in a month off. Practiced yest, so maybe minor

Sure sounding like Coyle, who just returned Friday, is banged up #mnwild

Oh, also the time should be CST. DST ended last night.

Harding starts in net for #mnwild. @CharlieCoyle_3 won't play, day-to-day with injury. Same lineup on D

Harding in, Coyle out. McMillan likely in as well.

 

[MNjens]

Yeo just said Coyle re aggravated his injury...

 

[Lapa]

So.. Parise-Koivu-Fontaine?

 

[Jarick]

I am assuming:

Koivu - Parise - Heatley
Nino - Granlund - Pominville
Cooke - Brodziak - Fontaine
McMillan - Konopka - Mitchell

 

[Lapa]

I am assuming:

Koivu - Parise - Heatley
Nino - Granlund - Pominville
Cooke - Brodziak - Fontaine
McMillan - Konopka - Mitchell

I assume you mean Parise-Koivu-Heatley?

 

[MNjens]

If I were coach my lines would be:

Parise-Koivu-Fontaine
Nino-Granlund-Pommer
Cooke-Brodzy-Carson
Heater-Konopka-Mitchell

Updated the GDT with edits.

I wonder what's going on with Elias. He's had a lot of illness issues lately... I'm wondering if these are lingering effects from him contracting Hepatitis A back in 2005.

Last time he was day-to-day was because of flu-like symptoms. Coincidentally, the effects of Hepatitis A is a high fever and other flu-like symptoms.

Harding in, Coyle out. McMillan likely in as well.

I knew it was concerning when Coyle missed his last few shifts last game...

 

[TaLoN]

If I were coach my lines would be:

Parise-Koivu-Fontaine
Nino-Granlund-Pommer
Cooke-Brodzy-Carson
Heater-Konopka-Mitchell

Sorry, mcmillan will likely be 4th line and heater 3rd line. Mcmillan is the new Veilleux.

 

[OpRedDawn*]

ugh, team needs coyle

McMillan is a better overall player then Veillux. Those lines just shows you what I think of Heatley

 

[NWAvs]

Avs fan coming in peace. Just picked up Harding off waivers, he playing well?

You may have just landed yourself a jackpot, my good sir.

 

[Lapa]

Yeah, he's been awesome.

I don't understand who would waive Harding, to be honest

If he's better it's still only marginal. I know you hate Heatley, but it still isn't happening.

Yeo just said Coyle re aggravated his injury...

his knee? so not related to the neck thing from that hit?

goddammit. well no matter what Rachel Blount said, i thought Coyle looked plenty slow out there last game anyway. not surprised. i mean honestly...did people actually think Coyle looked fast out there at all?

 

[LordFletcher]

Avs fan coming in peace. Just picked up Harding off waivers, he playing well?

who would waive him as he's getting ready to start again.

Yes, you did well ... but that shouldn't require an explanation. As an Avs fan, you've seen Harding play a few times and look at his stats this year. You have yourself a great goalie as long as he stays healthy

 

[rynryn]

incoming pulled in the second period kind of night.

 

[llamapalooza]

Yeah, he's been awesome.

I don't understand who would waive Harding, to be honest

My guess is he picked him up when Backstrom was hurt, and when Backs got the start again a few nights ago, he figured Harding was back in the backup role.

 

[Minnesota]

Merrill playing for New Jersey tonight. Excited to see the Wild take advantage of the rookie.

Devils are limping into the Xcel today. This is one of those games, boys and girls. For the Wild, there are no excuses for letting this one get away. Good teams find a way to win these types of games.
