jgodwin17 Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 I’m thinking Dean won’t be around too much longer with the way this team is performing. Also Johansson. Played amazing in a few games last season to secure a contract, and then just utterly stopped playing hockey. Guy still has not won a puck battle this season. He has been completely devoid of value thus far. Other than speed I think he has no merit whatsoever. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK_Soldier Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 C'mon L4. You can't be taking penalties for f's sake. Looks like a 4 minute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgodwin17 Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 To be fair though, I’m really not mad if we end up as a bottom 10 team this year and next. It will given time for our young players to develop and some high quality picks for when the buyout shackles come off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WheelSnipeCelly Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 The Wild do a great job of making teams having issues/concerns look great: Stars PP were ranked 29th with 10% — are 3-for-4 tonight Louis Domingue has only play 5 games in the last 4 seasons, and somehow the Wild made him look like an all-star goalies a few games ago 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WheelSnipeCelly Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) Now 4 for 5 against the Wild for PK...so frustrating and painful to watch Edited November 13, 2023 by WheelSnipeCelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WheelSnipeCelly Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 (edited) "Fun" stat that the announcers just mentioned: "The Stars have more powerplay goals tonight than they've had the rest of the season so far."

UK_Soldier Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Might be time to come to terms with the last two years post-buy outs was just a bit of luck and players playing beyond their abilities. I'm grateful for the last two seasons, but this is probably a more realistic outcome. Hopefully I'm overreacting and the Wild will go on one of their mid-season runs, but this is bad. Really bad. And now we have a bunch of these guys locked up as the core for the next 2-4 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There with you...feeling like the last two seasons were perhaps overachievements, and this season might be an underachievement. Locking up so many players before the season started is definitely a bit confusing....this season/game has been painful to watch so far. They're at least consistently inconsistent...

UK_Soldier Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Somebody do me a favor and cross-check Sutes in the back about 752 times to make up for what he did to KK97 in the playoffs last season. Prick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the contracts were a bit confusing, but the Moose one, was downright befuddling. Didn't deserve it in the first place and it was aging poorly before he even signed the damn thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's #2 in hits in the NHL, but I'm not sure what the going rate is for $/hit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK_Soldier Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Not sure of why I'm still watching, but this better be rock-bottom Wild. If it gets worse than this, I might quit for a while an pick up another hobby, like whittling or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacGyver Verified Member Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 The signings are one thing but then to give them no trade clauses is just plain silly. But if you're in BG's gritty club you're golden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
