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

[Northland Wild Man]

If Perry gets his femur broken I would not shed a damn tear. Of all players in the league that POS deserves to be taken down a peg.

No surprise, but I'm right there with you. The guy has talent but he's such a ***** with the cheap stuff.

 

[NHL1674]

Wasn't that a big thing they kept praising after the preseason too? Kinda like Vikings fans and the O-Line

Their first home game of the preseason was awesome. PP did everything right. Then after that game, it went back to the same stuff from last year.

 

[Hall of Faber]

yeah, it was such a brilliant and perfect pass by Zucker.

Dumba was open. He wasn't ready.

 

[Sharppi]

New season, same old ****** PP, same old ****** finishing. (same old skewed refs but that's due to tinted fan glasses)

 

[TaLoN]

Not a single PP goal yet this year.....we need them to wake up.

0 for 11

Everyone's choking up on those sticks too much tonight...

 

[Avder]

Well lets see if we've worked on our end-game catch up procedures...particularly the 6 on 5.

Blowing leads late in the game, a patented Minnesota tradition for decades.

No joke, I wouldn't wish that type of incident on Crosby or anyone with talent that is actually a respectable player. Perry is the Alpha Beta from Revenge of the Nerds.

Which just depresses me because it was the same last year too.

It has to be in unbelievable fashion too. Short handed goal and a goal given up on a bad turnover. Par for the course

And it seems that we don't deliver hits anymore. We are a "pure skill" team with no actual hits. Like none.

 

[NHL1674]

Can't win a battle along the boards now.

 

[NHL1674]

And this game is making me think the Avs are pretty dang easy.

They are trying to play like Pittsburgh. Yeo did coach there after all. There are very few teams in the West who can play that type of game. I think this team could but the youth isn't ready for that type of game.

 

[Lennu32]

Wild players are too far from each other, which creates dangerous passes. Gaps are too big.

 

[W75]

Scandy tried to Ballard.

 

[Sharppi]

Also Vanek can't seem to find the net even if his life depended on it.

 

[gphr513]

Jeez, fanning on shots, passes into skates, overskating pucks.

 

[NHL1674]

The look rattled after allowing that first goal.

You are correct here, the five man distances are way too long and exploitable.

And the ice looks so ****.

 

[BigT2002]

**** that. If this ice was actually what ice is supposed to be while playing hockey we smoke this team 4-0 right now. Can't fault them for not winning by a lot when you have to play in an arena that is ******* for ice condition. And yes, I've been there...puddles and water on the ice after resurfacing and need to squeegee it before they even get the players out there is justification that this arena is *******.

 

[BurnsyMN]

Preparing myself for the goalie pull and goal allowed 5 seconds later

 

[TaLoN]

Damn, played well most of the game... 2 mistakes and bam... gonna lose.

 

[Puhis]

Kesler holds Parise up for good 10 seconds. "I'm telling ya, Parise gets away with murder". Sure.

 

[Avder]

Everyone should just step back from the ledge here.
