The Minnesota wild folks:
Too good to be bad, too bad to be good. Such a mediocre team it amazes me

They've hit 100 points three of the last four seasons which puts them a bit better than mediocre. Their problem is that the Central has been stacked since realignment so there have always been at least two teams that were better than them.

If they were in the Pacific or Metro perceptions of them would probably be different because they would have an easier path through the playoffs.

I hope your great young players do well for you.

 

[Tkachuky]

We're ahead of you with a younger core and several key injuries and a hold out...suck it?

Actually the Flames team is younger but ok.

 

[Tkachuky]

So.....let me tell you about sample size...

The leafs can preach about sample size....

100 point seasons and making no noise in the playoffs = definition of being too good to be bad and too bad to be good

 

[canadianmagpie]

Pettersson just makes me feel so much better. What a shot on the breakaway.

 

[EpochLink]

Who walks with Elias?!

 

[Canucks LB]

Elias is f***ing nuts

 

[Knight53]

Boeser to Pettersson..... bar down

wow

 

[MMANumminen]

Oh my...EP is insane. Or was it Bure?

 

[WetcoastOrca]

7 goals in 7 games.
Not a bad NHL start.

 

[Dyno]

Needs a couple more years in Sweden. Too small.

 

[Tkachuky]

Pretty impressive. Canucks have a gem. Great young core.

 

[ImNeverWrong]

boeser looks really off, i dont think hes fully recovered from his off-season rehab.

Agreed, you see flashes but just not quite there. He also put on some muscle in the offseason and seems a half step behind. I'm confident he'll pick it up sooner rather than later.

 

[joe dirte]

@joe dirte guess the Flames weren't that crappy team that ur guaranteed a win against like u said eh.

I never said they were guaranteed.

But yes they're crappy.

 

[Critical13]

Actually the Flames team is younger but ok.

Is their core younger?

I wonder if van can make the playoffs this year

Let's be honest they wouldn't have done anything in the metro. Pens and caps have owned it for years.

U kind of did.

 

[joe dirte]

U kind of did.

Nah.

You want a guarantee? Leafs finish ahead of the Flames. Guaranteed.

 

[flamesforcup]

Nah.

[joe dirte]

Correct. They'll win 3 or 4.

 

[flamesforcup]

Correct. They'll win 3 or 4.

Hilarious
