GDT: G56: Wild @ NYI 2pm CT/10pm Finland (FSN)

How did they not get that on net FFS?

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

What’s the market rate for a 40 point forward nowadays?

Better than that or nothing.

Or insert Victor Rask joke.

 

[W75]

Greiss has no stick, no shots..

 

[StealthClobber]

Gross.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Islanders are boring. Glad the game is over.

 

[HwT]

Close, but no cigar.

 

[NDVike]

It looked like they tried to win this game, just can't finish when it counts.

 

[Minnesota]

It frustrates me when I see the Wild playing dump and (sometimes) chase hockey trailing in the 3rd period.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Lots of scrambles around the net. Sometimes you find the puck, sometimes you don't.

 

[Wabit]

The last 15 mins was a fun game to watch. Too bad the first 45 the Wild forgot to show up.

The Islanders "turtling" had something to with the switch up.

Some, yes. The Wild were skating/hustling in the 3rd finally. They weren't in the first two periods of the game.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Because they didn't have the puck. All of their hustling was going towards trying to get it back.

 

[Minnesota]

Russo hates Rask.

They didn't have the puck because they weren't skating, winning battles, or passing.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Russo hates Rask.

Well, he ain't lying.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

They didn't have the puck because they weren't skating, winning battles, or passing.

Or the Islanders were just doing it better.

 

[Wabit]

Russo hates Rask.

Yes he does, and Nino was one of his favorites.

 

[Wabit]

Or the Islanders were just doing it better.

They played the same garbage, no hustle, can't pass, are they even awake hockey that they have in so many other recent games. NYI is a good team, yes, but MN have themselves to blame. Bad icings, failed zone clears, and bobbled/off passes in transition. The plays were there, the just players couldn't make them.
