Half-Assed GDT: Winter Classic 2022 Blues vs. Wild

[A Real Barn Burner]

Puck is bouncing a lot and the boards are active as I have ever seen. I wonder as it gets colder how the ice and boards will get have to think it’s because of the cold temps

 

[Nederlander]

Where is Kyrou? I'm not seeing him.

Nice save by Binnington on that quick shot by Fiala!!

 

[RR10]

3 guys watching leaving Fiala open in the slot. Idiots.

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

come on colt skate

 

[Joshuar56]

Mikkola struggling.

 

[Puck Luck]

Just tuning in. Ice looks terrible

 

[Ranksu]

puck is bouncing like crazy...

 

[Davimir Tarablad]

Krug might have had an open net if the puck got through Brown right at the end

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Did Brown just steal that pass away from Krug? feel like if Brown let that pass through to Krug he would have tapped that home.

Glad i’m not the only one who saw that

Where is Kyrou? I'm not seeing him.

He's one of the guys chasing after the puck that's bouncing all over the place cause the ice is trash and nobody knows where it's going to go.

Ice got really rough towards the end there. Overall I thought we were the better team from start to finish. Only blemish is the Mikkola goal, but I'm ok with spotting the Wild one goal for the home crowd at a big event like this. Just go out and win the next 2 periods!

Obligatory bad ice GIFs

That said, this Game looks like what a Winter Classic should be. Great visuals all over.

He was noticeable early in the first.

Krug’s probably only pinching in that situation due to the time left, so I won’t blame Brown for having his stick on the ice in that situation

After seeing more Mikkola goal replays it pisses me off even more.

It wasn't good from the start. This might go down as the worst winter classic. Both goals have been lucky shots off opponents skates.

not a fan

That was a pretty dumb play. Why not just use his stick to sweep the puck away?

 

[Puck Luck]

Was not expecting a country concert during intermission

 

[Linkens Mastery]

At least they have decent music at the Winter Classic
