2013 Minnesota Wild News And Notes II

[Karl]

Dont talk about that until we clinch.

Noted. Though I did kind of protected myself by throwing possible in so I am good! lol

 

[Sportsfan1]

You know for as much as our team desperately needs more depth on defense this offseason with at least one legit top 3 dman, having the should be calder and Norris trophy winners is pretty cool

 

[tomgilbertfan]

I miss Rupp.

 

[Fel 96]

So, the Wild can clinch with a CBJ regulation loss tomorrow.

How sweet is that?

I like it!

Hopefully we win both remaining games regardless..one to play the Ducks instead of Chicago and two to go into the playoffs on a roll!

But...but.....but....there is no way this team can make the playoffs

 

[Haite]

Optimal ending for the season outside our games would be:

- CBJ loses against Dallas in regulation and we clinch as soon as possible
- Nashville beats Detroit in regulation
- Columbus beats Nashville on Saturday
- Detroit loses to Dallas in regulation on Saturday

That leaves both Detroit and Dallas out of playoffs by one point, while Blue Jackets barely sneak in.

Just watch how none of the above will actually happen.

 

[Billy Mays Here*]

Want us to get that 7th seed more than anything. Much better shot at beating the Ducks than the Hawks.

 

[Randy BoBandy]

I really hope the Blue Jackets fall out. I would much rather watch a Wings vs. Blackhawks series. I never want to see our expansion brother be close to as successful as we are. It sounds evil but I will always want the Blue Jackets to suck. So go back to what you do best BJs

Ah, and here I thought I was alone in my thinking this way. Thanks for making me feel not alone for having my evil thoughts, lol.

I thought I was the only one who doesn't want the oh-so-cute underdog Jackets to be successful. If they make the playoffs at our cost, I'll hate them, but I'd rather have them take the 8th seed than Detroit because I hate Detroit more than I dislike the Jackets. I hope Dallas wins tonight.

 

[Blakkmantis]

Just the fact they now have Gaborik is even MORE reason to not want Columbus to ever make the playoffs..... EVER.

 

[Jarick]

I wouldn't mind Detroit missing (guarantee Bertuzzi still doesn't touch a Cup) and BJ's get swept by Chicago.

 

[Blakkmantis]

Detroit is not very good right now, I think we are safe with the Bertuzzi not touching the cup this year anyways ... hehe

 

[tomgilbertfan]

I'd love for CBJ to make it. Bobrovsky is awesome. Gaborik is just another player at now, no reason to care about him.

 

[tyratoku]

Personally, I'd rather have Dallas in than Detroit or Columbus. Columbus is only fun to watch because of Bobrovsky. At least Dallas has Eriksson, Benn, and Lehtonen. And **** Detroit.

 

[Haite]

Admittedly, before Kekäläinen became the GM of Columbus I didn't care about them at all, but now I can't really wish ill for the first ever Finnish (or even European) NHL GM, especially in his first year. As long as it doesn't concern the Wild.

 

[Avder]

The main reason I want the Jackets in is **** Detroit and **** Dallas. Also **** Chicago if the Jackets can pull off a round one upset.

 

[MNNumbers]

I put up a new thread with the playoff seeding possibilities in it. No need for anyone interested to wade through here to find that if they want it.

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Rupp said he'll see how his knee responds in the morning before deciding if he can play: #mnwild has no extra fwds right now

Hopefully that means that maybe Pominville really is day to day and that one of him or Rupp can play tomorrow. Fletcher better not get caught playing a dman at forward again.

Somebody posted a Russo quote and Pom says he feel's fine but the brass will likely take it slow just to make sure.

I'd imagine that we see Pom back for playoffs, possibly back for the last game against Colorado.

 

[Fel 96]

I highly doubt we will see Pominville back against the Avs.

Hope we don't see him back until the playoffs.
