GDT: 10/17/2014 - Minnesota Wild @ Anaheim Ducks - 9 PM CT / 5 AM FIN

[Puhis]

We should have 3 or 4 goals in this game. Then again, without on-fire Kuemps, they could have a couple, too. In any case, this is still a 1-0 hockey game.

I really love how our lines look. As I said, it's unfortunate that Zucker has to be in the 4th line, but then again, he is a good fit there.

My only complaint in this game (aside from the slush ice and incompetent refs) is Keith Ballard. I mean, he has shown flashes of good play, but the discipline is lacking. Ballard - Dumba is a textbook example of a risky pairing.

Now that you guys have jinxed it already.. I'm bringing it to the next level.

Do you think we could go the whole year without giving up a goal?

 

[Puhis]

Amazed by what Kuemper has done.

Pominville's missed goal was heart-breaking. Being up 2-0 would have been huge. I think Minnesota has played solid overall tonight, but with that weak 2nd period, I hoe they don't run out of energy in the 3rd.

Also, I have the flu or food poisoning, idk which, and god I would feel much better with another Wild win.

Aw man, both are sucky options. I'd opt for the flu though, if I had to choose between the two. Get well soon.

I'm just happy to see what may be the missing piece (Fontaine) to the Vanek/Koivu puzzle.

4920 minute shutout? Absolutely!

 

[FinPanda]

Ducks looks so slow... This game should be 3-0 or 4-0 already.

Thanks for that last post, gphr513.



Thanks.

I'm not superstitious in the least, so every once in a while I like to (jokingly) annoy the ones who are

Thanks! Yeah I think I used some expired chicken bouillon cubes in a pot of macaroni a few days ago. Or I got sick from my girlfriend the week before. Either way, it sucks.

Wasn't that Vanek who dished that open net to Pominville? He is really underrated playmaker. Better Moulson they say? Moulson didn't have this kind of playmaking abilities.

 

[T4ylormade]

Anyone read the Ave's 2 previous GDT against us and the Ducks GDT? Fan bases saying how bad their team is playing. I'm starting to think a great deal has to do with our defense and how we have been limiting them to very few scoring chances. really sick of hearing how bad teams play against us and by discrediting the wilds play.

 

[W75]

I truly believe, that at some point Kuemps will be jinxed by all these jinxers. And his supposed 4920 minute shutout streak will be ruined!! Damn..

Now that you guys have jinxed it already.. I'm bringing it to the next level.

4920 minute shutout? Absolutely!

I jinxed it first

Thought it was Dumba.

Thats 98 2/3 games. I'll take it

It's Dennis ****ing LaRue. He's near the top of the ****** ref list. Give em hell, Tom.

It was Dumba and there is no reason in the world to keep Ballard and Prosser on this roster!

 

[Avder]

No it's 82.

98 2/3 would be 5920

It's rare to have a fanbase say their team is playing great when their scoring chances are limited.

Even Wild fans are guilty of this.

I agree they did play great against the avs. They looked good the first period and by the box score (I'm just following online cause I have to get up at 5:55 am).

Do you think we could go the whole year without giving up a goal?

Do you think Darcy will ever give up another goal in his career?

 

[bobman543219]

No it's 82.

98 2/3 would be 5920

Ahh whoops, mustve mis-punched it in. Might as well just make it 5920 at that point anyway

 

[NHL1674]

That Wells Fargo commercial...brings back memories.



Our new "Pitbull" this year.

You've been a Wild fan for how long? You should know by now how much injuries can change things in a heartbeat.
