Walz: He does a great job of layin' down there.

Okay Wes.

His job is to block the pass. He did just that. And if he does that, it's the responsibility of the goalie usually to take the shot. It's actually a really clever move in that situation, just sometimes stuff bounces. Walz was spot on.

Wild are gonna have a new record tonight in terms of shots against. Avs could reach 60 or more at this rate.

I'm not going to absolve Talbot but it did deflect in off Spurgeon's skate, right? Seems like a silly thing to praise.

The praise was for blocking the pass, which was at that point the right play. It gives a smaller angle for Talbot to take care of. You can't ever prevent bounces, it's just hockey.

Bjugstad is so bloody weak for a 6'6" guy. Oh well, you get what you pay for. I sure as hell hope we don't re-sign him, though. It's hard as hell seeing him out there centering our top PP unit, and losing FO after FO.

He's no James Sheppard, but yeah...hes a bit of a shmoo.

If Dumba’s out for a while, I really hope they give Addison a shot instead of rolling with Hunt.

Yeah, would be interesting to see what happens if Addison gets some extended playing time. Let's hope it's just a tweak for Dumba, but... didn't look good.

I'll still say that bit of ice had something gone wrong with it. As OTH said earlier, it was the same spot where Brodin fell down earlier, and Brodin blowing a tyre like that felt odd at the time, too - not to mention when it happens to Dumba at exactly the same place. Sure, it's not a low-volume spot and is quite often crossed when turning at pace. Still strange.

Ya, I noticed that too. I thought that Brodin and a bad edge or something, but it was in the same spot

This losing feeling is kind of unfamiliar and strange. I don't like it.

Talbot deserves to slash one Wild player of his choice.

Anyone not possessing the initials KK is exempt. Everyone else is fair game after this turd circus. Should be like the handshake line at the end of the game. He can just skate down it and hack away.
