Falk - Prosser 3rd pairing? Feels like 2012.

Falk - Prosser 3rd pairing? Feels like 2012.

Would've been really nice if Olofsson didn't get hurt so he could've been a call-up instead of Falk.

 

[AKL]

According to the pattern, we're supposed to win tonight so... Neat I guess.

 

[Minnesota]

Don't think he's ready for the NHL yet. Give him a season in Iowa first.

I don't think he could be worse than Prosser or Falk.

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Given that he's still out with that injury we'll be lucky if he gets half a season in Iowa.

 

[BusQuets]

Would be really surprised if Wild don't come out with the win. Home game against Boston who Wild usually play well against. Back to back games for both and we get to play their backup instead of Rask. But this is Wild so no thing is certain.

 

[Taylor26]

Hey on the bright side, the Bruins goalie tonight is Svedberg, so...

Silver lining?

seems like we always get the backup goalies and still lose or barley win.

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

Backstrom will get leprosy and Curry will get scurvy leading to Cooke coming off of IR and saving the day in goal.

 

[BurnsyMN]

So this is Wednesday Night Rivalry on NBCSN. Sooooo Boston is our rival?
NHL.com article rational for that is that Minnesota and Massachusetts have a hockey culture. Okay then....

Only use Cookie if Johan Gustafsson gets whooping cough and if my Momma's hasn't been taking her vitamins and gets rickets.

 

[AKL]

Don't forget to get your Scarlet Fever shots

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

Yeah, the whole rivalry night thing is hilarious

 

[behemolari]

nothing..

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Spurgeon back tonight.

 

[gphr513]

Spurgeon back tonight.

and Folin out...

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

So the top 4 D are in? Automatic win!

 

[StealthClobber]

So let me get this straight - top 4 D in. Svedberg for the B's. Home game?


Still lose, because Wild.

 

[Minnesota]

Krejci's playing tonight... So, that's bad.

Secretly good for my fantasy team.

Is he for sure? All I've seen from anyone official is that he's been taken off IR. Possibility for tonight.

 

[Minnesota]

No official word yet, but I don't see why he wouldn't play if they're taking him off IR.

 

[Avder]

Hey on the bright side, the Bruins goalie tonight is Svedberg, so...

Silver lining?

Almost makes it worse because we seem to make a lot of backups look like vezina contenders.

Rivalry? With Boston?

Wow, they are really stretching it. That's pathetic.

 

[Wild Caniac]

Mike Milbury getting called out. Love it.

 

[gphr513]

Well, they had MIN-BOS, OTT-NJ, and DAL-VAN to choose from.

Not a lot of rivalry going on there.

Maybe they meant Minnesota is it's own rivalry
