It's going to get to the point where any PK the Wild actually succeed on is going to get a standing ovation...

Classic hockey lesson. Choke away three PPs, sure as shit the one against costs you. The Wild have been better disciplined this season but gotta think about results, not excuses.

Gonna need a large 3rd period. Still not impressed with the vets overall production. MN catching breaks has dried up. Need to make your own kind of thing.

I hate to say it but you have a chance to jump out to a two goal lead with the early PPs and it doesn't happen. Eventually the road team picks up steam and not you're chasing.

Need some Kirill magic or something. Anything...

Great game to learn from. Wild have to bounce back. They got lucky beating Toronto. Maybe should have given Gus a rest. Scoring has fallen off a cliff just that fast. Need to execute. 

Strongly believe a PP goal to go up 2-0 woulda been the lead MN wants to play with. Once you're chasing in the 3rd, it's likely you're gonna get loose and give up more chances. LA does not suck. 

MN can't take anything for granted. Good start but teams are gonna wanna beat you. MN has to blame the PP and to some degree Gus both letting down tonight.

Didn't clean up around the net AND LA's big NA guys got the better of MN's little Euros and 3rd D-pair. 

Besides the first goal no momentum captured and no big players factoring in for MN. The anti-success recipe tonight.

You can't expect Kap to score every night, and he hasn't for two games.  You don't win if you get all that PP time and nothing to show for it. Even worse when PK still feels like an automatic goal per game against.

Just beat SJ and ANA back to back and forget this liss happened.  The Wild haven't suffered a losing skid yet.  Don't make it a thing now.

Trading for Martin Necas like many of us wanted last offseason would sure be making the team better and providing secondary scoring.  Affordable contract and he is dominating right now.  Rossi, Gus, some pics and prospects for him sure would have been nice.  But of course our great GM wanted to run it back with grinders that have no offensive ability.  We are always terrible against the good teams in west.
