Great play by spurgeon. Kemps and spurgeon playing terrific

 

[josephwild123]

Great game for the Wild. Very well played.

 

[Bruce Granville]

Kkkkk!!!!!

 

[Puhis]

Koivu! A game!

 

[gphr513]

Nice!

2 points

 

[NHL1674]

Damn....if only we didn't suck in overtime so much. But 4 out of 6 points on the road isn't too bad. Kuemper gets a reprieve.

 

[melinko]

This game was crazy, not a typical 2-0 game.

Big saves for both goalies. Legit felt like a playoff game.

 

[Minnesota]

Well, I feel much more comfortable with Kuemper as our backup now.

 

[Puhis]

Wild win! Off the ledge, on the W sheet!

 

[TaLoN]

Back up into 3rd in the division... as much as the guys have been struggling... this is FAR from the usual December swoon.

 

[W75]

Yee! Win, shutout and empty netter. 2 points.

 

[Nsjohnson]

Russo said there was a fight in the stands right around when Parise scored I think.....anyone know????

 

[Avder]

Good to see Kuemper playing like he did at the start of last season again.

Hopefully that means he and Dubs split time a lot more evenly when he comes back, so both goalies can be fresh once the playoffs roll around.

With two games in hand on STL.

 

[57special]

Kuemper...wow! Can he keep it up? I didn't notice one lapse of concentration. He 's got physical talent ... Much quicker than Doobs.

 

[TaLoN]

With two games in hand on STL.

Yup, 2pts back with 2 games in hand.

 

[Minnesota]

Russo said there was a fight in the stands right around when Parise scored I think.....anyone know????

He didn't tweet anything.

Edit: Found it. Probably nothing major, just drunk people.

Mikko is such a beauty of a captain. Think he's the only guy in the league i'd rather have lead the Wild than Parise.

Finnish Swag

 

[Sharppi]

Oh well.


...wait
4/6 points out of a roadtrip? I'm okay with this. Onwards, time to crush/smother/barely edge out/play worse than but win our next opponent, 'Nucks.

 

[Lapa]

Good for Kuemper. Hoping he keeps playing this well.

 

[Fremitus Borealis]

Nice to see them win even while they're still struggling a bit. But they've GOT to do something to address the offense, though. You just can't assume you'll be able to hold every team in the league to two goals or fewer every game indefinitely.

Hopefully Parise's nice goal lights a fire under his ass and it spreads to the other 10 or so guys who really need to pick it up

 

[BigT2002]

Great win. Kemps looks very comfortable out there.

I know Zach's the "sexier" pick but I love Mikko as the ultimate captain. This guy's been in the trenches with our team for years. He leads due to experience, being a veteran, and with plenty of knowledge. He represents this fanbase, he's been with us every step of the way, way before Zach and Ryan joined us. Mikko is one of us.

I love the set up with Mikko captain, Zach and Ryan assistant captains. I am good with this set up and want these three guys holding a Cup together too.

Great win last night!

 

[W75]

Saw only most of the 3rd period + highlights, but Kuemper looked really confident and steady. Saves and moves looked natural and smooth. He wasn't forcing anything, not under- or overplaying, timing and decisions.. Everything looked good.

Great news.

 

[Minnesota]

Brodin - Dumba have looked good during their limited time together these past few games - I think Yeo's easing them into playing with each other now.

Dumba's back on a hot streak, and Brodin played fantastic last night.
