GDT: Preseason G4: Blues @ Wild. 7pm CT (FSN)

[16thOverallSaveUs]

I think we have our answer for escaped goat

 

[Blue Ox]

Who in the heck is Hicketts?

 

[Wabit]

Rask and Benn need to go sit in a corner with dunce caps on.

 

[Prior]

Who in the heck is Hicketts?

Someone you don’t need to worry about beyond today.

 

[Wabit]

Who in the heck is Hicketts?

injury callup d-man at some point this season.

 

[AKL]

Watching Addison do that to AHL teams this season is going to be fun

 

[GordieGallant]

Well that was ugly.

 

[Wabit]

Watching Addison do that to AHL teams this season is going to be fun

Watching Benn get walked by AHL teams isn't going to be fun.

sure it is, he's irrelevant

 

[Prior]

Rossi’s quickness needs work.

Duhaime can find himself an apartment in St. Paul.

Beckman’s night may be done which isn’t great for him. Hopefully he’s okay enough to start the year in Iowa with Rossi and Boldy.

If the Wild aren’t making a claim on a defender tomorrow and are okay rolling into the year with the possibility of Benn playing at all, you may just want to pack it in now.

 

[TaLoN]

Beckman is not a guy who should be dropping the gloves.

Facepalm moment at the arena... fans behind me getting excited about Beckman dropping the gloves... no guys... no... we don't want this potential someday sniper breaking his hands in a stupid preseason fight!

Another facepalm moment... after the 3rd goal, another fan taking that as evidence of the Wild being in for a long season... uh... have you seen our brutal lineup?

That said, Rossi actually looks ok outside that 2nd goal allowed. I've of the few players in green with a pulse at either end of the ice.

Do you mean Dewar instead of Duhaime?

 

[TaLoN]

Who in the heck is Hicketts?

Dunno, the only thing I had to say about him was Hicketts has rickets...?

 

[Wabit]

Duhaime can find himself an apartment in St. Paul.

AirBnB for some extra cash?

 

[Webster]

Not watching, but it sounds like our kids suck...at hockey and fighting

 

[Wabit]

More like the adults suck at hockey.

 

[Prior]

Do you mean Dewar instead of Duhaime?

Not really. Duhaime is their ideal winger on the bottom six it seems. Some size, speed, and a little bit of fearlessness.

Dewar looks to be trending in the right direction but needs an act of god to elevate over untouchables the likes of Rask, Gaudreau, and Pitlick.

That's the problem, MN has a bunch of that already and just added another via waiver claim. They need a FWD (2 really) to play with Fiala.

Exactly this, the kids show the most pulse tonight... the adults...woof.

 

[TaLoN]

Beckman starting in the box, so at least he's not injured.

 

[123TripleDoge]

Me about the results of this charade of a game

 

[Prior]

That's the problem, MN has a bunch of that already and just added another via waiver claim. They need a FWD (2 really) to play with Fiala.

But they don’t need to force a recreation of the GREEF line either. I think the below looks a hell of a lot better than whatever they are trying to do now. Especially if all the kids start in Iowa.

Foligno/Greenway - Pitlick - Fiala
Duhaime - Hartman - Greenway/Foligno
Rask - Sturm - Bjugstad
Gaudreau

So Benn is bad, I guess they can throw him on waivers too, not sure how much he makes.

I like that even less than what they are trying to do.

 

[GordieGallant]

Nice kill
