How the heck did he put Wednesday’s 6-1 loss behind him, a game he was pulled after allowing six goals on 17 shots? How the heck did teammate after teammate say that Dubnyk’s positive attitude the past day was contagious and wore off on the group? How the heck did Yeo say the most impressive part of Dubnyk’s response was his eagerness to get back out there tonight and rebound?
“It’s easy,” Dubnyk said. “Everything we’ve been through, the belief that we have as a group in here of how good of a team we are, there was just no doubt from anybody in here that we were going to come in and have a better hockey game. I always go back to the conversation I had with [Coyotes captain] Shane Doan and him just reminding me that when you’re down or have a bad game, you need to remind yourself that that’s not the person you are, that’s not the player you are. You go back to when you have a 40-shot shutout, or 35 save, one-goal game, that’s who you are as a person and a player, you just have remember that.”
Dubnyk made 19 of his 36 saves in the third period, a period the Wild was in severe survival mode as the Blues pressured heartily.
...
Charlie Coyle, who scored the fourth goal tonight, raved about Dubnyk after the game and said the bench exploded with that save.
...
The Wild is now 4 for 11 on the power play this series. Tonight snapped five consecutive Game 5 losses.
That’s it for now. We know how the Wild usually play when it’s in a terrific position. We’ll see if it can avoid a letdown.
So, I guess we matched it tonight?
Fans are gonna come to party on Sunday afternoon. Hope the team comes out on fire, ready to close the series out.
Zucker is obviously playing hurt, guessing it's bad enough that if it were regular season it would be week to week.
I've been very disappointed with Vanek, hopefully for our sake he's playing hurt as well, because for the money he gets he should be much better.
.
Going to need this workmanlike attitude coming back home.
I want to close it out in game 6 so badly.
I said Wild in 6 and I'm sticking with that
"Of the 606 best-of-seven NHL playoff series played, 149 (24%) have resulted in a Game 7 with the home team holding a healthy 94-55 (63%) edge."
Really need some help from the puck-gods on Sunday, game 7 would be too nerve-racking to watch..
