Eww that's really going to help them from blowing three goal leads. If anything they will spent a lot more time defending.

Breaking @TOTALLUXURYLIMO I-35 Report: #mnwild recalls Bickel, Falk from @IAWild. Ballard and Folin to IR. #MINvsBOS

 

[Jarick]

Credit where credit is due...nice scoop new poster.

 

[Victorious Secret]

I get Falk, I don't understand Bickel.

 

[Wild33]

I'm guessing Brodin can't go or Dumba sits tonight. Hopefully Bickel is just insurance in case another forward got banged up last night.

 

[Jarick]

They put Ballard/Folin on IR, which is fine, could just be insurance in case Brodin is banged up and can't play.

 

[Nharris31]

well if one of these guys plays tonight I will not feel bad if the wild lose. also there goes being one of the better possession teams in the league.

 

[Gaps]

Yay

Hope Brodin is able to play.

 

[Jarick]

It's nice to have Mr. Bickel on the boards

Jeez, Folin to IR? Must be a nasty flu bug.

Its a bacterial infection of some sort. Pretty nasty from the sounds of it.

 

[tomgilbertfan]

@mnwild: Falk will play tonight. Brodin won't play. Yeo said he is "sore in a couple different places." #mnwild #MINvsBOS

 

[ThatGuy22]

Seriously. Bickel? Couldn't have called up one of the number of useful players in Iowa?

 

[StealthClobber]

Bickel won't play anyway.

Jonas Brodin is sore in couple different spots today, not just hand. Very clear Yeo and fletcher are worried; Falk plays, Bickel no #mnwild

Why even bother with Bickel? He's useless and should be stuck in Iowa pretty much permanently.

And why not Blum instead of Falk? Cause you know, Blum seems like he's actually competent where at one point I was using Falk as a curse word he's so bad.

We're playing Boston, so I'd assume toughness played a part in both decisions.

 

[MN_Gopher]

Bickel is an ICSH situation.

If he sits oh well, Blum and Olofsoon etc... you want to continue to play in IA.

 

[TaLoN]

Jeez, Folin to IR? Must be a nasty flu bug.

Retro active ir, he's eligible to return at any time.

How long is the NHL IR?

I'm guessing Bickel is brought up because the Wild thought only 1 would have to play, and they'd rather see him in the press box than someone who they want on the ice.

Personally I think it's because Bickel knows that when you're putting the butter on the popcorn, you fill the bucket halfway, add some butter, fill it the rest of the way and add butter again. That way you get even butter distribution. That's the kind of veteran popcorn making a guy like Blum will never understand.

Yeah but it's not like he can diffuse the butter to the popcorn like Sheppard. That's the worst trade ever Chuck Fletcher has made popcorn wise.
