They'll lose against Calgary. We just need to take care of business against the Flyers and the Mildew when the time comes.

Hate seeing it but the Wild are taking a page out of the Avs/Roy playbook tonight. Respect.

2-1 now!

Toffoli with a hell of a shot, gets the Kings on the board but they're still down 2-1.

Dubnyk is such a pretender as well, these ****ing announcers acting like he's so good, but a couple of flashes of his glove-hand don't mean anything, and Toffoli beats him with a laser of a shot.

Avs would most likely miss the playoffs but it makes it even more likely because of the injuries to Duchene and MacKinnon so hopefully they'll learn the lesson not to start the season slow thinking they can catch up later. They're not Chicago or Anaheim to start slow and still able to make the playoffs. This team needs to grind out the season from the get go.

Its not just the start. Its giving up a whopping 12 pts to the east that will do them in. Even getting just 5 of those pts would put us 6 up on the Wild. They need to start on time and be consistent. throughout the year.
But it happened. Hopefully they can pull it out.
But despite my criticisms Im glad they are in the thick of things though. Imagine being Montreal right now.

How the hell were the shots 31-12 in favor of the Kings a while back, but PP's 4-1 in favor of the Wild?

I've watched more Wild games in the last week than I care to EVER watch and I'll say this:

They get away with a TON of obstruction/interference and all that jazz.

This is awful. Can't even count on 2 of the best teams in the league for help. Avs need to win the last 9.

Rather play top teams this time of year than the bottom teams. Bottom teams play loose with nothing to lose, and players playing hard for jobs etc...where top teams actually saving themselves for the playoffs, worry about injuries and stuff so they don't really try hard.

Obvious collusion among the top WC teams to let the Wild win to keep the Avs out of the POs

You think LA/CHI/DAL want to take a chance and play Varly in the 1st round?
