GDT: Winter Classic 6:20 pm (TNT)

[AKL]

I'll be there with my southern blood. Not dying will be a win enough for me.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Feels like a loss to me. Does anyone disagree?

Rust, missing guys, and we weren’t exactly firing on all cylinders in games we have played recently.

A win would be a pleasant surprise.

I would like to see a few goals as well

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

If the game was in the X I'm thinking the same thing, it's a loss. Just the game to dust off the rust and move on.

I just think the outdoor, temp, and the excitement of it will be big factors.

Hopefully they factor in positively. Fiala will get a goal tonight. So just need other people to step up and add a few as well

 

[Webster]

At least we have the most productive outdoor guy among Wild and Blues players, with 4 points (2-2) in 3 games. And this makes him 6th in league history.

Tonight his plan is to make those stats look even prettier...

And what player Wild that be?

 

[57special]

Spurgeon, Brodin, and JEE out? Not expecting a win. Hope i am wrong. This is a group of well rested try hards that might prevail.

 

[SladeWilson23]

To any of you who are going to the game, god bless you!

 

[Webster]

Zucc.

Been looking for outdoor stats for other Wild players, kinda hard to find.

It won’t be too bad. Might even go tarps off for a portion of it

Its not a big deal compared to what the Blues faced recently having many key players out at the same time: Kyrou, Thomas, Schenn, Perron, Faulk, Bozak, Binnington.

Looks like Schenn is out for this game but the others are back.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

1 Siberia mention.

I am talking about tonight's game, not things that have happened in the past. Spurgeon, Brodin, and JEE are about as central to this team as it gets. Missing them guts our defensive play.

Are those paid actors doing the fake ice fishing and roasting marshmallows?

 

[Southern Minny]

So, what hard stuff are they selling tonight? I don't think beer will be a big seller tonight. lol

Part of the 200+ TNT crew?

I know first hand how fast beer turns to slush in these temps.

Hot chocolate with some baileys in it. Delicious, and boy did that little bomb heat me up

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

2 Siberia mentions.

 

[MuckOG]

2 Siberia mentions.

...and still early. Should've taken the over.

 

[TaLoN]

...and still early. Should've taken the over.

Do any of these count yet though? The first wasn't even on TNT, the second is in the hour long pre-game.

I thought it was for during the game broadcast itself.

We can quibble, but I consider pre-game part of the broadcast.

Regardless, I wouldn't be surprised if we get 5 mentions after the puck drop.

Ok, pre-game on TNT sure, I could understand, but any mentions before that on a different network?

I wouldn't count those....I saw that NHL Network made a reference to Siberia during their pre-game, but I didn't count that. I did chuckle though.
