GDT: Wild vs Avs 7:30 cst (NBCSN)

[Wabit]

Is Rask looking decent? Or is he playing the same, and there are so many worse players on the ice he looks decent by comparison?

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Kaprizov’s average shift length has to be ridiculous and I’m here for it. The guy Hates coming of the ice

 

[BagHead]

well, he is dangerous, in a way.

I almost mentioned that, but I thought I'd let someone else pick up that thread. I'm glad you did! Gave me a healthy chuckle.

Bjugstad is making him look better, or at least not as bad

 

[57special]

The AHL guys are looking like AHL guys. Mayhew is only going to have a few more games to show if he's got anything. No reason to hold back.

 

[Webster]

Thanks ref you made me laugh, all this delay to add one second

I don't think he's holding anything back. This is all there is to his game.

2:09 ToI though 2 periods is sad.

I'm guessing we're about 30 minutes from Russo speculating that Spurgeon is playing hurt

Spurgeon not on bench now?

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Spurgeon not on bench now?

Hell of a sell.

 

[Wabit]

Spurgeon not on bench now?

Not according to the talking heads.

 

[57special]

Spurgeon hurt? Oof...that might explain his play

I think someone saw your prediction.

Spurgeon not on bench now?

I didn't think he would actually get hurt. I just expected the usual excuse making

Spurgeon hurt? Oof...that might explain his play

Kind of like this

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Noted right shot center, Vincent Trocheck, off to a good start to the season

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Spurgeon hurt? Oof...that might explain his play

Happened during the game. Not before.

 

[Wabit]

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Rau and Bjugstad out there together... 2012 was fun.

 

[Wabit]

Both teams look like they are just trying to get though the game without anyone else getting injured.

 

[Uberdachen]

NBCSN commentary is admirably actively refraining from calling Wild players generic Tecmo names like C Wild.

 

[NHL1674]

Why didn't Parise just take the damn shot instead of drop passing it?

 

[BagHead]

Whew, when everyone else is tired as heck, Parise actually looks fast.

 

[Mookie Blaylock]

Why didn't Parise just take the damn shot instead of drop passing it?

He's self aware
