I'm not sure but I think Avs are not liking EJ.
I don't usually read other teams boards but the comments directed at Johnson are priceless

EJ is garbage and always has been. He's a flop as a #1 pick. I HATE that guy and hope he hears all the hate from the fans.

Anybody else love the FREE MATT COOKE chant during the post game talk? Forget the Avies, we got this!

Game 5 is the crucial point, the series may hinge on that one. I think if the Wild win they bring it home in six.
Very nice to see Heatley play a strong two games. However, I really think he should come out of the lineup in Denver. Av's are gonna play that matchup and try to turn this into a run and gun series at home.
Can't wait for Saturday. If we can steal that game, the X is going to be so jacked up on Monday.

Most impressed with the third line. Nino was fantastic. Fontaine fumbled the puck a bit, but he worked hard and I hope he has some of that opportunistic scoring in game 5. And Haula has just been amazing. So glad he has pushed out Brodziak, who has been the worst player all series.

Not as bad as Fleury though. We "technically" don't have a goalie on our roster as "skilled" as he is, but at least Kuemper's flub didn't result in a Game 4 loss
The only goalie comparable to playoff Fleury is playoff Bryz.

Thank you, sweet rabbit
Haula has added such incredible depth to the lineup. Not sure any of us were thinking he'd be effectively anchoring the third line in the playoffs this year. His overall game is just so impressive so far and he is quickly becoming one of my favorites.
I thought Fontaine played well. Brodziak have us some much needed thump, and didn't make any mistakes that I can recall. Kuemper aside, I thought just about everyone played well. Prosser does make me nervous when he's out there. Stoner not so much. His physicality is much needed.

Great win by the Wild. Granlund has been playing great. But man I wish he was a little bigger. I get nervous every time he gets hit. We need him to stay healthy. He's going to continue to be a target during these playoff games. Hopefully the Wild can bring this level of intensity to Colorado and they can come back to Minnesota and win the series.
I was scared when Prosser was out there with a minute to go. Yeo must really trust him.

Can't remember ever seeing the Wild dominate 2 games in a row since there existence into the league. And to do it in the playoffs is unreal. Where has this been all year? Can they do it for a 3rd game. I wouldn't put it past them. Keumper starts game 1 and the Avs are on the brink of elimination.

Yeah and something to consider, at least 2-3 of those shots were at the end of the game with the net empty. That means Colorado only got like 9-10 shots through 57 minutes or so.
Wow lol
I didn't feel like we missed a beat replacing Cook with Niño. I thought him and all the other young guys were great

Nino had some shaky moments. Definitely better offensively, not quite as sound defensively. Good overall though.

If we are going to win in CO, we need to play the same way but I think we will need to take advantage of a few of those A+ chances. I have a feeling 2 goals won't be enough.
