GDT: D @ Jets, noon.

[Teemu Salami]

lucky win. there was no called penalty against kesler.

Lucky #40. I like it.

 

[Magnus the Duck]

Silf looked like he was about to come a cropper there. But that was all just part of the monster deke, right?

Maybe he'll use that deke on all penalty shots now?

 

[dracom]

Huge defensive breakdown from Jets there. Very nice return pass from Kesler, and Silfverberg had all the time to bury the rebound.

Yeah, that was bad. All 3 went for the puck, I chalk it up to fatigue.

 

[Frosted Tips]

Honestly wasn't expecting a win there, but I'm glad they have the finish after a bad, bad mistake like that. Hockey gods please let Perron be fine.

 

[mighty Stanley Duck]

Well David's hand was flat with body so i dont expect serious injury.
Hit was hard but as i said its important that hand wasnt bended before the hit.

My thought was exactly that when I saw it. The impact was "straight" and not at an angle.

He'll probably get a good rest until the playoffs.

I think we're more concerned for his shoulder, collarbone than his hand.

A perfect serving of chicken salad today.

Give Perron the rest of the road trip off no matter what

Bieksa yet again led the D in icetime..

Someone please explain?

Lindholm led the team with 22:29. Bieksa was second.

Hmh... and here I thought Bieksa had a fine game. He gets ripped automatically here after every game.

Tbf, I'd be *****ing and complaining too. Kesler got away with one. Good goal by Silf. Felt like that line had another strong game. Pirri is absolutely useless. McGinn had probably his best game I've seen so far.

Can't understand why WPG have done so poorly this year. They looked really good. Burm's was a constant threat, as was Wheeler. Hutchinson was solid in net. Baffling to say the least.

Not only is that not true, but at some point you need to understand that total icetime is in no way indicative of the toughness of those minutes. Take last game for instance, where Bieksa played more than Lindholm, except Bieksa played most of his minutes against the bottom two lines and Lindholm the top two. Haven't looked this game up yet, but I imagine it's the same.

 

[bumperkisser]

the save that lindholm made today completely highlights gibbys' lack of mobility on those 2-1's or cross crease plays.
what a save by lindholm, gibby looked pretty good from the highlights other than that though. and maybe some questionable rebounds

Teams team to play harder against the ones who eliminate them from the playoffs (or rivals). Minnesota is 3-0 against Chicago this season, and struggling to get into playoff position.

He did have a fine game. I saw one mistake, but partially due to Stoner.

People here just like to ***** and moan about him because it's "cool" or "funny". He started off ******, but has been much better. He plays big minutes on one of the best defensive teams in the league, plays on the #1 PP in the league, and the #1 PK in the league and has a big role in all of it. People just use blanket statements against him now.

Is he perfect? No, but he is doing just fine.

 

[Hedning]

Yeah... Gibby wouldn't been 1st star if it wasn't for Hamps save of the game that took the team into the ot and later on 2 points, instead of none. But I guess the WPG-crew thought that Gibby saved the sure goal?

Kes-line yet again really good. And I hope that it's not too serious with Perron.

 

[monster_bertuzzi]

Good to see Kesler playing so well.

 

[duckaroosky]

Is it me or has Hayward been more annoying during the last couple of games?

I don't know how that is possible.

That was what I thought.
