Beast Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 At some point you have to think about bringing in a new coaching staff next year. All they do is self destruct in the playoffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backwoodsbob Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Maybe I'll go watch the T-Wolves face elimination later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protec Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 The Wild have been losing all year when they take 5-6 penalties a game. They're just racking em up in the first period. WTF Dean, get the boys under control or it'll be three losses in a row and out just like last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secord Sucks Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Faceoffs and penalties, and especially faceoffs on penalties are killing us. Before the game started, people were talking about how this ref calls more penalties than any other, need to be playing accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wild aren't great in the playoffs...but the Wolves are literally the worst professional franchise in history. Hang in there. Who know's.

Deano might be getting a little hot under the collar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK_Soldier Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Reaallly thought Zucc was going to break out after scoring two...but the last two games he's back to being a turnover machine/passenger. Frustrating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK_Soldier Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Well, that could have gone much better, but it's just the first period and nothing they can't overcome if they screw their heads on straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought they'd be down two at a minimum (I set the over/under at 3 in my head) after the major...given how absolutely shitty the PK is. For gods sake. Dallas has a good PP...but this is next level ineptitude. Edited April 26, 2023 by UK_Soldier 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose getting tossed probably shook up the team for the most part of the period. Stop with the damn penalties, maybe they have a chance.

dlhouse Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Just tuning in. I guessed the Stars would be up 2-0 and sure enough they are. Hardly surprised. Looks like another year of being the Central's doormat in the postseason. It's extremely disappointing considering they looked like the better team for most of the series, but that never stops them from being on the wrong end of things. Heck, they were even the more physical team for a change! Come to find out though that the rules have changed and now that kind of behavior is strictly and overly enforced.

Protec Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I mean, at least the expectations have been reduced to where a Game 5 win would be a miracle. The Stars embarrassment level would have to go way up, perhaps screwing with their heads. However, I think that between coaching and having gone deep before they seem to be playing the Wild for fools. Dallas staying disciplined while MN shoots themselves in the foot and continuing to do what Dallas wants. I gotta admit I didn't see the Wild coming out of the gate and losing all composure.

WheelSnipeCelly Verified Member Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Thought this was another 8pm game...apparently not! What did I miss besides being killed on the PK again? 2 for 4? Buh! That's 9/20 in the series so far. Not good...not good at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
