He is splitting time with Nojo in practice?  I still have hope.

Watching last nights game on youtube All About Hockey.  Lauko with a honey badger forecheck creating turnover and breakaway leading to gudro's garbage goal.

I see you LOTR-KO!!!  Like this kid!

MaRat showing some good playmaking ability too.  I think he'll start season as 4th liner but I'll bet he moves up the lineup by end of season.

LOTR-KO goes to cheddar after a beauty set up in slot by 38 Special.

Lauko early favorite for Rocket Richard this year.

2nd period and another noticeable shift by MaRat.  his effective pressure is unlike 89's 'pressure' where 89 is just kind of following the puck around the ice always a second late.  22 is often 1/2 second ahead of the play forcing opponent into a pass that creates the turnover.  

Pewter Prospects has MaRat as the top prospect to watch this season.

Guerin spends about 10 min in the booth in 2nd with Carts and Panther.  He paints a good picture of his philosophy for team chemistry and keeping players he likes around and creating an environment where players want to stay here.  My GDS is in remission...I drank some of the kool-aid.

Rossi gets a shift with 97 and 36 and tips a 97 shot for a goal.  Let him cook!!!

Ohgren will be fine.  

- It's a waiting game until Mojo gets traded or it's next year and the contract expires.

- They obviously don't want Ohgren riding pine in the press box, which is why Jones or Boyd get first dibs in that spot.

- Injuries are bound to happen.  Guess who is likely #1 on the call list?

That caught my eye as well. We can only hope.

Wish NoJo the most debilitating minor injury possible without long-term consequences other than making him unavailable to the Wild for the next 82 games.

Hope, might not cut it. Gonna need to sneak the Lloyd Christmas technique into NoJo's coffee.

I guess the words, "never wish for players to get injured" never occurred to some people.
