3rd game in 4 nights and they've been waiting on us. yeah we didnt play well but this shouldnt be cause for concern imo

 

[josephwild123]

I guess NBC didn't see how Ott did last year in the playoffs...

 

[theButton]

lots of game left too...hopefully thats good!

I agree Pierre. Steve Ott is a wonderful guy to have in the playoffs. His buffoonery helped the Wild win a game or two last year.

Nice, aggressive sequence by Kuemper.

 

[MNNumbers]

By my count, looking at nhl.com, Kuemper has played about 8+ minutes and faced 9 shots. That's a lot.

Spotlight is a real good movie. Now I want to rewatch "All the President's Men".

 

[keppel146]

Dubnyk lost us this one. No pp help either...

 

[keppel146]

No one showed up tonight. Maybe Koivu. Everyone looks flat and no one wants the puck. At the beginning of the 2nd Brodin, Vanek and someone else were on top of the puck and they all stared at it like someone else was better off getting it.

We have guys trying, just not finishing. Passes need to be more crisp and bad Dubnyk

Game is not over?

 

[Ban Hammered]

So now the fans are turning on Dubnyk...no big shock. All what have you done for me lately. Pathetic.

A bad game is a bad game. That does not equal turning on him.

Some claiming we don't have a number one? I'd call that turning on him.

 

[57special]

I don't think the Wild can do much about this game. Dubnyk laid an egg

Yeah. Not that the Wild have been brilliant or anything...some of The turnovers have been ugly...but no NHL goalie should have let in ANY of those goals, and that rebound he created was terrible.

 

[57special]

Koivu with the **** up, now?

 

[Wild11MN]

I guess. Didn't read through everything, but giving up 3+ in 9 of 14 games isn't exactly inspiring either. It's not that we don't have a #1, but he hasn't been lighting it up.

 

[57special]

This is bloody embarrassing

And every player...in the world...struggles at times. People take this game WAY too seriously and it's embarrassing.

Yup, we're in agreement there.

Since I am the guy who said we don't have a #1, let me respond to this.

Our #1 (Dubnyk) is not playing better than the backup. He hasn't been for at least 14 games. That seems to me to be a large enough sample size to suggest that using them evenly for 2 or 3 weeks is a reasonable idea. We need someone to really light it up, or the season will be over.

 

[Minnesota]

Holy crap, Fabbri is fast.

 

[Dakota Sioux]

Kuemper starts and we are tied at 0.

Great. #1's generally get the chance to play through struggles. It's why they are #1's and the other guy is the backup. Kuemper has never shown he can be the guy so why not ride the guy being paid to be it.
It's a team issue....not Dubnyk.

Sure we are...
