Are there any gifs of these hits that the hawks fans are griping about? I missed most of the game.

 

[Avder]

I don't often watch Wild live, but watching it after this win has been really enjoyable.

Someone make a most interesting man in the world out of that.

 

[Avder]

That meat man in the kwik trip commercials is ****ing creepy.

Sour grapes.The first one wasn't a penalty (they think it was a knee on knee attempt to injure) the second was a penalty (they think Nino dived) both calls were correct IMO.

@RussoStrib: Suter plays nearly 10 minutes in 3rd, assists on Parise's goal, creates Parise-pominville-Granlund 3-on-2 goal. No reason to panic

If they want to argue for the Nino dive I could see that. It was soft, but so was the Crawdad slash.

 

[llamapalooza]

I have, but like any Minnesotan I find it difficult to revel in victory without spiraling into introspection.

Hahaha, touché. There really are too many great local bands they could use throughout the game production. Personally I think "Let's Go Crazy" by Prince would be a pretty phenomenal choice for a goal song.

And the game 3 Stoner "crosscheck"

Just got back from the game. For the first time ever in the history of the Xcel, the crowd chanted at the goalie "Crawwwwwwwford, Crawforrddddd" It took a while for it to take off. It was a group effort to push past the "Lets go Wild" that drowned it out at first. Well done.

Fantastic choice.

I was yelling Craaawfoooord Craaawford so loudly!! My voice is gone!! Amazing game!

Woohoo!

It's a step in the right direction! Hopefully we learn to ride the goalie all the time, even in regular season games.

If we can add a "you suck!" in there every 3 repetitions or so, it means our crowd has finally graduated from crowd chant kindergarten

 

[Avder]

Hehehehe:

Chad Graff @ChadGraff
#MNWild coach Mike Yeo: "Now we can sit around and enjoy a day off -- although I probably have to talk to you guys."

Yeo's learning to troll the press

 

[BurnsyMN]

Woohoo!

Another thing to note from tonight is the pre game ops were much, much better. They finally got the 3d video on the ice. Crowd got so hyped when the Nino game 7 OT goal was shown on the ice surface. Hopefully with the new scoreboard the game ops will improve drastically and improve the crowd interaction, especially between whistles.

 

[Nino Noderreiter]

Woohoo!

My section had the you suck thing down as well

 

[Northland Wild Man]

I wanted to bring something up that I saw tonight. On the Parise goal I noticed him just kind of left alone in front of the net. It just seemed so weird to me. I was actually yelling pass him the puck he's all alone in front.

I think this was due to Chicago being tired, and trying to push for a late goal, but you almost never see that.

 

[Lapa]

Granny's first goal.. WOW.

Just back. I will say, it wasn't the atmosphere of 4 or 6, because everyone was waiting for the team to lose and Chicago to score first, but once the Finnesotan put one in, the place blew up and it was raucous the rest of the time and as loud or louder than Game 6 (though Game 6 was constant).

An absolute blast. Here's hoping I get to a Game 6 in this series.

Gotta admit, I've been pleasantly surprised with McCormick this postseason.

I wonder what their thoughts are on the slash/hook on Haula's arm on his breakaway attempt. Or the possible double minor high stick on Koivu (at the very least it should've been 2 minutes), both of which were missed calls.

I really don't see how Keiths play on the breakaway was a penalty.

If you can't do THAT, how are you supposed to defend it?

 

[Avder]

The slash was right on his hand.

Even NBC said it should have been a penalty shot.

You can stick check the other players stick you can't hook and slash his hands.

 

[AKL]

I had no problem with it, it was a tap at worst
