I miss Zucker! Why do you gotta be out so long Jason!
The young talent on this team seems to be really coming together recently

Will be crucial to beat Edmonton tomorrow, because the schedule gets a lot tougher after that. I think we can expect them to come back to Earth a bit.

Preds are gonna be a tough game for sure. They better be done with booing Suter.
Honestly though, this team isn't going to have many struggles the way they're playing.
After the Preds you got:
@ Avs (2nd game of a Back-to-Back for them)
Sens (1st game of a Back-to-Back for them after Long Break)
@Caps (Back-To-Back for Us)
@Canes (Back-To-Back for Us)
Avs (2nd game of a Back-to-Back for them) - Brutal schedule for the Avs
Devils
Only tough one of those is gonna be the Caps imo. Don't want to look at the schedule after this though because I know it gets brutal.

Aaah, I thought that Eastern Conference stretch was after the brutal portion where we have Anaheim, Nashville, and St. Louis in 4 of 5 games.
It be awesome to not allow a goal against Colorado all year. We've shut them out 3 times already. And by the looks of it according to Spurgeon, it's gonna be that much harder for the Avs to score if their on the 2nd of back to backs for each remaining game.

Just watched some replays of the TB vs. Colorado game... Some terrible defense from both teams. I'm confident we can poke some holes in the Avs blue line.
Anaheim. And I would rather deal with the second and third seeds in the Pacific than desk with St Louis or Chicago, too. 7th seed is the best.
Absolutely Anaheim. Nashville has a killer defense and goaltending. Anaheim is top heavy with offensive guys who win regular season games. Anaheim's coach has never had success in the playoffs in the exact same situation previously.
What I don't like is that Nashville would get home ice. They're currently 25-3-1 at home.

Really?
Chicago: been playing like crap for a while now. Doesn't mean they won't turn it up however. We match up better against Chicago than some of the others.
Kings: Playing really well lately. I would not be confident playing them really at any time.
Anaheim: Top heavy team, with a hell of a top, but we've shown we can play against them. I'm not saying it would be a coin flip, but we might be able to take that series.
Nashville: I feel as if way too many people still underrate this team and relate them to the team they were the last couple years. You guys do realize they're at the top of the NHL and have stayed there right? They're playing/have been playing damned good hockey and would probably kick our ass. Our odds against Chicago are better.
Their home record is also obscene and not accidental. This is not the Avs of last year.

playoff experience matters. LA is the team i'd fear the most, after 2 playoffs against the hawks i think we'd match up well if healthy. toss up between ducks & nash. peggers vs wild would be a heck of a fun series! SJ is getting older. just my one cent.

woah, Yeos job was never in peril? i'm so shocked.Learned today that the old Macy's building in downtown St. Paul will be our new practice facility set to open in 2016, and it's pretty cool looking. I got to see the floor plans, what it will look like, everything. Rink is gonna be on the top floor with huge glass windows and walls looking out into the downtown area, and work out facilities and locker room areas are on the bottom floor with a huge elevator which will take the Wild to the top floor and the rink. There might also be a small Target or Walgreens along with some other stores in the building. Can't reveal how I know as I promised to keep that confidential, but I thought I'd share it with you guys.
Don't worry, I'll reveal my source.

But nice, I don't think it had actually been confirmed yet. Curious to see what it'll look like.

I got to see all the concept drawings today, it's pretty cool looking. From the lounge area, to the locker room, to the rink, it's all very nice. Think of it as demolishing a large chunk of one of the four sides of the building, replacing it with glass, then replacing part of the roof with a higher roof to house a hockey rink.
