Eh, I'm using to Brodin playing with crap Dmen. Sorta his thing. So besides bringing up another LHD, you also want to bring up a RHD? Who, Belpedio? I have no clue who Grant is. I mean, the situation is hardly ideal... we lucked out with Seeler as a sound third pairing guy, but now we need another, as well as a RHD. Don't see it happening...hope I'm wrong. This Olofsson C couldn't have come at a worse time, assuming that Suter is out for a while.

Completely disagree. He joined the rush and there were still two guys behind him so he *should* be safe in doing so. Murphy was burned for a breakaway.
Soucy, Bouramman, Loov, Menell. I believe Belpedio is on an ATO. No idea if any of those players are injured.

Using my innate ability to scout players with nothing more than HDB, I'm gonna guess Soucy?
going off of their +/- numbers, I'm not sure Loov or Belpedio have found their own end of the rink yet. Mennell is interesting though. Wild were really high on him in camp, had a really rough start in Iowa but his numbers have evened out as the year has gone on.

He jumped into the rush during a line change and then went "deer in the headlights" when the puck was turned over. Then he turned away from the puck and towards the line change. Couldn't have played it worse. Blaming Murphy, who was just getting on the ice is, silly.

Sort of glad I missed this one. Based on highlights, the defensive effort was some of the worst I have ever seen from the Wild. Passes to opponent's stick, players caught out of position, forwards being lazy about coming back to their own end. Just awful. Boudreau really needs to yell at this team.

Absolutely. Of course meant the whole team's defensive effort. Though Brodin & Murphy pair seemed brutal out there. Also, Zucker and Staal seemed to have a "controller disconnected" moment on Dallas' second goal.
Edit: Controlled -> Controller

Can we trade back for Reilly? lol
I love how people all of a sudden now see how valuable a guy who eats more minutes than anyone in the NHL is.

Looking back. 1st GA is on Staal. 2nd GA is on Greenway. 3rd GA is on Murphy. All 3 of the goals were from TO in the neutral zone. 4th GA was EN from behind their blue line, no real fault on that.
I didn't have a problem with how Dub played. He maybe could have stopped all 3 of the goals if he had his "A" game, but I don't think any of them were soft goals. The only line that showed up to play was the 4th line.
Wild did have some chances at a couple of wide open nets but couldn't finish.
Losing Suter "insert swear words".

Turning the puck over in the nuetral zone doesn't automatically make the goal "on you". The 2nd and 3rd goals were not scored because of the initial turnover, both were scored by nobody picking up the trailer coming into the play.
The TO in the neutral zone was the catalyst for all three GA was all I was saying.
The reasons I say the GA were on Greenway and Murphy:
-Murphy after his TO collapsing on the guy Dumba and Staal had along the boards instead of staying in the middle of the ice on the shortie.
-Greenway doing whatever it was he was doing along the side of the net after his TO. He stops at the hashmarks instead of getting sucked low and covering nothing and there isn't a wide open shot from the slot. Suter, Dumba, and Greenway had a nice triangle and the setup was good when the cross-ice pass happened.
