What a joke I mean a high school team would've scored those empty netters (or something right?)

Close it out Thursday

[JLo217]

Remember all the optimistic Wild fans before this series thinking we could take the Hawks?

Not with this **** roster, not in a hundred years.

No, but I remember a bunch of Wild fans bragging about their success against the Blues and the Hawks shouldn't be much harder.

No goals against Crawford in over 4 periods. Thats even funnier.

 

[Teemu]

Over 2 and a half games since the last Wild even strength goal

Turns out Islanders got lucky

 

[GoGoWild*]

Vanek is just so, so bad

What a horrible signing

It was a terrible signing, guy has the work ethic of Justin Bieber. Doesn't fit out scheme at all. Brought him in to finish and all he does is turn the puck over and coast. Dubnyk came back to earth as I suspected. Let's just hope we don't shoot ourselves in the foot and sign him to some stupid contract.

GG Hawks, we didn't show up at all. Could have been a great series if the Wild put forth 50% effort.

 

[Timbo Slice]

Vanek is just so, so bad

What a horrible signing

Yes. Yes it was. But at least the term is not very long, that was a smart part of the deal.

The Hawks are just too good. The Wild have a good team this year and they're don 3-0... playoffs are weird, man. It just takes a completely different gear than it does in the regular season

 

[WarriorofTime]

Yes! 3-0. Wasn't expecting the game 3 win. You da man tonight Crawford.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Crawford for 3rd straight year vs Wild has been difference (Ok in 2013 the entire Hawk team outmatched Wild)

But these past 2 years Crawford has really carried Hawks vs Wild

 

[Gootie]

Crawwwwwwwwwfooorrrrrrrddddd

If only we had a Vezina finalist in net

 

[who_me?]

Vanek is just so, so bad

What a horrible signing

It was his retirement package. Everyone with half a brain saw that coming.

 

[ChitownDoctor]

Wild in 4 calling it

 

[SP1966]

Yes. Yes it was. But at least the term is not very long, that was a smart part of the deal.

The Hawks are just too good. The Wild have a good team this year and they're don 3-0... playoffs are weird, man. It just takes a completely different gear than it does in the regular season

Nothing to do with gears, they just don't have the talent to compete with the Hawks.

 

[Le Barron de HF]

What the hell happened to Vermette? Why is he so **** with the Hawks?

 

[GoGoWild*]

Nothing to do with gears, they just don't have the talent to compete with the Hawks.

The Wild could have just as easily been up 3-0 in this series. Playoff hockey is funky, not trying to take any credit away from the Hawks here though. Hawks have outplayed us big time.

Crawwwwwwwwfoooooorrrrrdd

Someone needs to let Minnesota fans know you do those jeers when a guy is letting in goals, not when he's slamming the door on your team and most likely your season.
