I'm only going to panic if we lose to Columbus.

Yeah, can't wait to watch Gaborik scoring 5 goals against the Wild.

Don't even start to blame the goalie..

Why, he did the same thing yesterday? 2 on the board right away.

I could be generous and say 1 wasn't his fault tonight, even so he's not where he was when the team was winning.

 

[BusQuets]

Isn't it coach's job to prepare the team and this was the second time we have come flat footed?

Holy **** forgot they have Gaborik now. I can't wait...

At the 30 game mark of last year, players started getting hurt and the Wild went into complete free-fall.

Wild's terrible play started at the 32nd mark, right before Coyle and Heatley got hurt.

Just saying...

what did I miss?

 

[Lapa]

Good things about this game:
St. Mikael, Coyle & Kuemper looked good.

 

[Nsjohnson]

Panic mode? Panic mode.

This.

I definitely can see Kings fans lurking laughing so hard right now.

Didn't watch the game, but based on the .gifs and other reactions I think we should have traded away everyone over 28 at the deadline, thrown Heatley into a lake (We wouldn't even have to weight him down, his feet come with cinder blocks attached!) and tried to collect some kind of insurance, fired Yeo, stripped Koivu of the captaincy (Prior to trading, just for ***** and giggles), replaced Parise with Veilleux, and went into a full tank mode.

 

[Fel 96]

Lot of talk about much-needed rest next 2 days. 8 games in 13 days. "This has been a grueling stretch," said Yeo, who sees no legs on video

I feel bad for the first line. They were our only legit scoring threat tonight, but have nothing to show for the effort. Kuemper was solid too, can't blame him for the loss. Hopefully Bäckström will be lights out on Sunday, because that's a game we simply have to win. It's good that they have a couple of days between games now.

Waive and send down Prosser, call up Zucker, bench Bouchard, play Zucker with Seto - Seto needs a speedy linemate. Put Brodziak back on the 3rd line.

Glad to hear we're using the "too many games in too many days" excuse. Because, y'know, it gets easier during the playoffs.

Its stretches like this that makes me realize just how impressive it is for a team to win a cup

Has anyone heard of a timetable for Cullen? I'm still not confident with Granlund centering the second line.
