Minnesota Wild General Discussion 2024-25

Am I the only one finding it real hard to stay engaged with this team right now? I have a hard time even sitting through a game with the way they are playing. They aren't showing me anything other than they can't score if their lives depend on it.
Zero chance Kap wants anything to do with this dumpster fire long term and I might actually be ok with that. Hopefully Kap leaving gets Guerin and his clowns all fired. Start over and try to get it right this time
 
Likewise. Team seems in complete disarray. Why does Billy keep adding old useless players? I thought this was the best prospect pool? Could we play these young guys? This season is finished. There is a player or a fan that thinks the wild if they squeak into the playoffs have a snowball chance in hell of doing anything other than looking completely embarrassing.

Here we go again. I thought Billy was the savior. Or Hynes. Back to start all over again.

Billy is a dinosaur and a drunk and indignant one at that. He prioritizes everything that makes for an abysmal on ice product. He need to be gone and gone fast

For me it’s like watching a train wreck. This is a perfect tank team, except without the draft picks.

Na not at all.

I'll sit down to watch the game and after the 1st period im usually like "f*** this" and go watch something else.

Teams hard to watch right now.
 
IIRC, Preds fans warned us about Hynes not liking to play or doesnt trust playing young guys. Wonder how much if at all thats making some of the decisions he has been in regards to Jiricek.
 
Part of the reason for my ennui regarding the team is that it seems to be the same thing over and over again. I mean, is this team really any better than the Mikko- MiG- Coyle-Nino -Zucker ones, or the Koivu- Parise- Staal-Suter crowd?

We seem to be stuck in a cycle of ... not bad.... a bit better than mediocrity, but certainly not a team who has achieved anything.

By contrast, my beloved Newcastle have been abysmal, relegated to a lower league, resurrected, earned a Champions League spot, and most recently, a Cup, all in the past 10 years.

Meanwhile...we seem to be in the same place as we were 10 years ago, with our last playoff series in what, 2014?

I am simply finding it hard to get very interested in the team. The best player we have ever had appearing to be injury prone just adds to the mix of meh.

As of the play in 2025 so far either team are better than the current squad. The wild look as dysfunctional as ever with no one interested in going to the net.
