Rask went 11-2 in scoring chances tonight

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Fiala's best puck control game that I can remember this year.

 

[57special]

I thought Sturm was ok.

The “Parise effect”

Gotta say, even with Stone and Pietrangelo missing, they looked like the better team. Not by much, but they were. Big Kahk was great, though. He has a funny, hunched over style, but he is quick side to side, and I bet he doesn't get many 5-hole ga's.

They weren't.

Congrats to Kahk on his first NHL shutout. Feeling pretty comfortable with him....actually, I feel a lot more comfortable with our goaltending this year.

 

[Minnesnota]

They weren't.

Based on which metric?

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Based on which metric?

Most of them.

 

[Minnesnota]

Most of them.

Do you have any data to share that supports your claims?

 

[2Pair]

Most of them.

First period was all Minnesota
2nd was mostly Vegas
3rd belonged to Minnesota

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Well, I watched the game in question. And if you went to the NST game report, I believe that it would lean pretty heavily in our favor, though I’m starting to trust their numbers less and less.

That coincides with my thinking as well.

I think the game was fairly even, but we definitely had much more quality opportunities, and they came more often for us too. Vegas looked a bit puzzled at times trying to figure out how to generate scoring opportunities.

They were certainly better where it counted, though, and that's really all that matters. I thought Kahkonen looks very good. Little to no rebounds. He's really turning into something nice.

you don’t miss Dubnyk? How many times did we see the Wild fight like hell and then he’d let in a softie and completely deflate the team. Now they have a chance.

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Agreed, I thought the Wild drove the play in the 1st and 3rd periods and even managed to be aggressive on offense and on the puck in the 3rd period when Vegas was clearly trying to turn up the heat.

And one of these games Kaprizov is going to be rewarded with the 3-4 point game that he deserves.
