DON Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 1st meeting since Dec 11 7-1 beatdown. 2 pretty even teams, in similar spots in their conferences. "With an assist on Shea Weber's goal on Saturday night against Nashville, Jesperi Kotkaniemi became the third player in franchise history to register 20 points or more before his 19th birthday, joining Mario Tremblay (1974-75) and Petr Svoboda (1984-85)." Wild have beat Leafs and Sens and looking for 3rd win in a row. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other is Mario Tremblay. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Nice job by the penalty kill to kill off the Agostino major (which was the right call). Domi has some giddy-up in his game tonight as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott462 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Weber injured. Probably broken jaw/cheekbone. Thats really unfortunate, hopefully it’s not too serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 They could just be holding out Weber for precautionary reasons too - too much swelling to make a diagnosis so ere on the side of caution. The defence hasn't looked too sharp in his absence. How many high-quality chances did they give up there? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 With the fourth line not playing much (Deslauriers is at just 4:42), I wonder if they'll drop him back on D (his natural position) for a shift or two in the third to try to balance things a little bit. I doubt they will but it's an option at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trizzak Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Petry's brainfart sucks, ya, but this game is on the non-existent offense that has disappeared for 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habopotamus Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 As soon as they play a stingy team, they can't score. They got bottle necked against Nashville too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott462 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Always struggle against Minnesota. Weird. Hopefully they come out strong against Detroit, can’t afford to lose to many right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neech Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Not a fan of using a timeout there with 30 seconds left and giving the Minny defenders the chance to rest. Throw on a fresh Kotka and co. against a tired defense, it's not like our main guys were lighting it up anyways. Petry's giveaway was terrible, but Price seemed to give up on stopping the puck as soon as he touched the Minny player, who was well out of the crease. How often does Drouin just throw the puck to the open ice without checking if there's a teammate there to receive it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Price knew he had no chance at it so he caused contact with the Minny player to hopefully get the goal called back. He did the same thing the other night but it didn't work then either.

Might not have worked anyways, but it just seemed like he gave up on that immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
