Just gonna post what I posted in the GDT, Parise/Koivu/Cullen are all great shootout guys, that move Cullen did does pretty much every time and scores, can't blame Quick too much in that shootout, tough one to take.

No. He played every one wrong. Way too far out on the first two and the last one he left a huge 5 hole open while standing on both skates and his tick in the air.

Quick got pwned in the shootout! Hard to believe he was unbeatable in the SO a couple of years ago! Bernier in next game.

Man, Quick used to be so money in shootouts.
I don't know if he's thinking too hard about things or if he isn't focusing enough, but his issues all season are clearly mental ones.
Just making way too many little mistakes that he wasn't making last year.

It's a good thing that playoff games aren't decided by the shootout, otherwise I could see a reason to be freaking out.

Exactly how other goalies have looked on Cullen's move.. and Koivu just roofed a perfect backhand but okay you're opinion is different than mine.

League didn't have a book on him by then.

Quick was still barely a starting goalie.

The league does figure you out at some point.

These shooters are in the NHL for a reason.

No one is using Quick as a scapegoat. Were just calling a spade, a spade. He sucks this season. He's not anywhere close to how he was last year.

Quick has to be playing injured. His game has dropped down a whole level. No way we should be losing games like these being up by 2 goals. Hopefully the boys don't disappoint me tomorrow; will be in attendance.

How the **** is this loss being blamed on Quick? Pathetic how everyone is using him as the scapegoat.

Because he was pretty ****ing awful and let in 3 softies + 3 shootout goals? Conn Smythe is looking a lot like Dan Cloutier this year.

Yup. He looked confused out there, and not confident.

Mental issues are killing his game and have been all season.

Hopefully Quick didn't injure a fan throwing his stick.

This is what I meant. I don't like it. I understand he's showing emotion, but after each goal he threw a fit. All that does is get him further off his game. He rarely did that last year and was a mental rock.

Tough loss and Nolan needs to sit. Ridiculous. At least we got a point...

Maybe he should go out there, run into the other goalie like a moron. Or go play some defense too. Yep, all his fault. He didn't start whining when Parise took him down, it was the guy wearing #8 who stopped playing his game.

His game was good in regulation, so I don't know what the hell people are complaining about. It's like people thought that Quick was going to be as good as he was in the playoffs every game. That's insane.

Never will be, that was a career year. We would be lucky to see Quick play like that again within the next Five years.

All you really should be looking for out of Quick is a 915 to 920 SV%, and be consistent.

Like King Hank. Hank with awful Defense is still sporting a 920. SV%.

Nolan had a bad game.

Quick didn't look comfortable in net. There was too much Quick instead of just enough.

Way too many 3 on 2's for Minnesota. Muzzin has to stop looking at the puck and just take the man.

A point is a point though. 2-0-1 on a tough road trip so far. Not an easy game tomorrow, but Dallas and Minnesota looked fine on back to back nights with travel against the Kings, so, that's no excuse.

Ya know, we can also acknowledge what the Wild did tonight. They played a tight game and were in it all the way. They are a good team that put out a great effort tonight and beat us in a shoot out. Quick is struggling but he is coming around and will be fine come playoffs. We will get to face the Wild in the playoffs and don't think for a second that they didn't have tonights game marked down on their calendars.

We get everyones best effort now that we are the champs and if we don't bring our best game we are gonna have our tough nights but in the end we are gonna make the playoffs and when we get there we are going to dome some serious damage.

I think its Mitchell and Greene that is the problem, not Quick.

Sutter needs to start Bernier more. (I know it's a back-to-back, but in general.)

For Quick to have a sub-90% save percentage this late into the season is inexcusable.
