yes i want them to win. not get bounced or injured and then seeing disappointed Kaprizov leave. that would be bad. right? or not so bad as long as we have Rossi? 

You got me! I don't care if the team loses every game so long as Rossi plays every game of his NHL career here.

(this is something called sarcasm)

yesterday's game should be an eye opener on the physicality of the games and what it will look like in the Playoffs. Bogo went off and that was fun. For us. lmagine Bogos from other team going off on our Top line. That's what we need to prevent as best as we could. Our skill and fancy footwork works in regular season but the games are called different in the playoffs. STL rode us in waves of north/south style game and we had a hard time adjusting....we did finally, but STL is not the other top Central teams. Those waves will not relent. 

our top 6 must be enhanced. and marcus right now is the odd man out. even if he is not traded - he cannot start in our top 6. if we stand pat - i'd do this -

Is Chicago too physical for Colorado? The Hawks just beat the Avenots. 1 game...

Ya know, it's kinda fun stopping into the other teams forums to see them wail and despair just like here. The difference? We're currently top 5 in the NHL. Check out the stars fans sometime, good for a laugh.

I will do that on occasion as well and it is good for some laughs and gives you a different point of view of your team. It's the half way point of the season and things are lining up well for the Wild.  They are persevering through major injuries and still winning games against some of the best teams in the league. This is a different marker from years past. The Stars and Avalanche are having off seasons and appear more beatable than recent years. I think the Wild could beat either of these teams in a playoff series even if everything remains as is in terms of player personnel. The Wild just seem to have that chemistry and confidence right now. Which is why I caution against too large of a shake up of this team. 

The Jets seem to be the biggest obstacle going forward. We will know much more when we plays these teams coming up. These games including the Avalanche tonight will be a good indicator as these games will have playoff like intensity. Each team trying to plant the seed of doubt in the other for the playoffs.
