Both Blues goals were as soft as butter.

Just never know which Dubnyk is going to show up.

Respectfully disagree. That first goal was a heat-seeking missile. I thought Doobie did his part tonight.

    The season is unfolding in such a perfect way. They were able to ride Dub's early on because they had a good amount of off days, now they have had a flurry of games but everyone else is picking up the

    I think Yeo is way too "system" minded. He does not make dynamic decisions and he clearly doesn't manage people very well. Boudreau is a pro.    That said, it was Yeo's first job. Maybe his time with

We can't have nice things.

It was a 60 foot shot, unscreened and untipped from a guy with 4 career goals.

If that isn't soft, then why are you so concerned with the Wild's net front presence?

**** **** **** **** ****

 

The Wild having the best regular season in franchise history only to get beaten by their limp ***** ex coach is the most Minnesota sports thing ever.

 

Add this group of underachieving losers to 2000's Twins and every Viking team ever.

 

 

Gahhhhhhhh stupid Minnesota sports!!!!!

At least with hockey, 2-0 is not so difficult to overcome as it is in other sports.  But, it goes without saying we are in must-win territory.

I have tix to game 5. I'm 100% convinced they will lose that game 5-1 and lose the series 4-1.

 

Boudreau, what a freaking loser this guy is eh? Can't win anything in the playoffs.

Wow.

 

You're quite the optimist thinking you're going to get to attend another game this year.

He snuck it past Dubnyk's toe just inside the post. In hockey, we call that a snipe, my friend. Lucky or not, dubnyk was set properly and he couldn't reach it.

It looked to me like he whiffed grabbing it.

Yeah that goal was softer than Statfreaks belly.

 

Even so, Duby has allowed 4 goals in nearly 7 periods. That should be good enough to NOT be down 2-0 in a series.

 

Parise is the only player who has showed up this series. Everyone else has been garbage and soft, or when they try to not be soft they take stupid ass penalties or make stupid mistakes.

 

I'm near done with Coyle and his antics, underachieving. Cya in Vegas bud.

I don't know if the goal was hard or soft but I do know we're down 2-0 (at home no less) to a lesser team coached by Mike Yeo which logically leads me to wonder if firing him was a terrible mistake.

Definitely not a mistake. Coaches are symbolic figures. If the team loses confidence in the guy, they lose confidence in themselves. He had to go. Doesn't necessarily mean Boudreau's a genius for putting the wild at the top of the conference

I agree Yeo had to go. The team openly quit on him.

If we get knocked out by the Blues, Fletcher has to go. Unless the goal is one and done every year, but I think the owner expects more than that.

Yeo was the worst. I don't blame them at all for letting him go.

This team sucks, no heart.

 

Fletcher has to go, Boudreau has to go.

 

Two more losers in the rich history of Minnesota sports losers.

The Blues look like the team that want it more. And it's not even close.

If we get swept, which I think we will, I think it's time to let Fletcher go and do a full tear down and rebuild.

I've never met any of them, but this team appears to lack mental toughness.

I'm changing teams. Officially. I said I was going to do it early on this season, then these bastards brought me back in only to fool me once again with the same heartless, empty headed nonesense. Won't get fooled again. Go Kings.

This is devastating, but so ****ing predictable.

 

This stupid ass state is cursed when it comes to sports.

You're letting them off the hook with that remark.

I'm really not sure what to do, but it might be time for a retool.  

 

I'd keep Granny, Zucker, Coyle, Nino, Spurgeon, Scandella, Brodin and put everyone else on the block.

 

We supposedly have another great wave of talent coming, let's open some spots and see what we can get for some of these guys.  I love the way they played this season, but we're aging fast.

 

At the very least I'm trying hard to move Suter and/or Parise.

Suter had the worst game I have ever seen out of him. I am hoping he has an injury or something, because if he is 100% and puts that crap performance on? Uh oh.

 

I'd keep parise, he's one of the few on this team with grit and heart. The one guy all series who continues to goto the net the whole game.

 

Pominville, time to buy him out.

I too would rather hang on to Parise.

 

I'd shop Suter heavily this offseason though.  It's time to change some of the leadership on this team and I think I'd start with him.

Yeah this team also is super deep at D.

 

The problem is, no way is Suter going to agree to a trade. So might as well toss that out the window.

 

Giving NTC to guys you are giving max contracts to is dumb, if players want NTC they should give you a bit of a discount IMO.

 

Oh well.

 

Much more concerning to me is Granny disappearing this series, and Dumba looking like a pee wee hockey player out there.

I think the way you move Suter is to find a team considered to be a Stanley Cup contender and find a fit.  That way he is moving to a team that gives him a Cup chance.

 

At this moment I have no idea who that would be, but I'd make it happen.  But it may require a new GM to shake it all up.

Who would want that contract?

 

Also suter is from the area and wants to play with his bud Parise.

 

I don't see it happening.

I honestly don't know.  But a trade a lot like the Subban-Weber deal is the sort I'd look for.

Sigh.... Just a depressing playoff performance all around. They've tried to win with this core of players for 3 years now. I think the time is right to make a blockbuster trade and switch it up.

Yeah, damn it would have been amazing to snipe Nashville on that trade.

So what are the odds that we can win this series?

 

10%?
