GDT: Game 5 | MIN @ CBJ | 7 PM EST

[MoeBartoli]

PP movement isn’t as good without KJ

 

[stevo61]

There is an obvious lack of skill right now but atleast the guys are working. Easy to do early, hopefully they keep the effort up as the season drags on if reinforcements are a ways off

 

[DEF]

For as bad as they are playing, they aren't playing that bad.

 

[Halfboard]

Thanks Yogi….

 

[majormajor]

It's been a much better period. Lot of pushback.

I like that "hip pocket" breakout from Jiricek.

 

[Seedtype]

Huge save by Tarasov.

 

[stevo61]

Johnson can't be an every night player, man that's bad

 

[Viqsi]

Huge save by Tarasov.

Tarasov is anti-tradition.

 

[Napoli]

For as bad as they are playing, they aren't playing that bad.

They have turned it up a notch after the challenge. The Wild are very solid defensively and Tarasov is standing on his head.

Agree.

I’m also not very impressed by Harris either. Isn’t really bad or good at anything.

 

[Halfboard]

Like most of the roster; he’s just “a guy”…..

 

[stevo61]

Worried about protecting Jiricek and throwing the whole lineup out of whack meanwhile Harris and Johnson are doing this kind of stuff

 

[LJ7]

Sillinger has been late to a few plays tonight

 

[Napoli]

Yea Jack Johnson is essentially playing with a man down.

 

[Halfboard]

Well, he had a real good look at that….

 

[Napoli]

That's gonna be the puckgame

 

[MoeBartoli]

being down two goals is tough for this team as constructed. The top line aside, Fantilli is the only other top 6 player. And Sillinger is the only 3rd line player. Every other forward is a 4th liner or AHLer

 

[Halfboard]

Chili???????

Been like that for years now with all our injuries

You’re actually being generous…

 

[LJ7]

Injuries took the team from having a solid top nine to a top none. I like the playstyle and system changes but this lineup is really underwhelming without Johnson, Jenner, and Voronkov.

 

[punk_o_holic]

Safe to say they aren't coming back. Crazy how Minnesota never trailed so far this season.

Darn it! You spoiled the ending for me

Chinakov says no shut out tonight.

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

Well got the one goal at least, Chinny makes it 3-1 with a wicked wrister!

 

[Grouchy]

Not shut out.
Yay.
