There was a moment or two late there, where I woulda wanted to see Boldy go to the net or shoot. Too much perimeter play in recent weeks. 

Watching NoJo pick himself up off the ice for a full six seconds and go for a change prior to Boston's 2nd goal was also awesome. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!!!

6 periods of zero I repeat 0 goals lmfao. Playoffs aren't in the plans this year. Tank hard for a top 6 pick.

Too late I'm afraid. NoJo is back and he won't allow it.

Foligno gets some hate on here and I don't really understand it. No, he's not a fleet-footed goal scorer but he is a damn good role player and I think his big brother style leadership is good for the team.

I like Moose, but I don't like him at his $ amount, and think he could be replaceable for much less.

You might be right but I do think there's more than meets the eye. Just a hunch.

I just took a peak at his stats and he is extremely consistent in scoring 20 points a season....so much so that it's kinda weird.

I wonder if Hartman wasn't out, would Ohgren be back in the A or would NoMo still be healing?

Possible Ohgren should be thanking Hartman for the extended stay.

I'm a little on the side of the conspiracy theory that NoJo wasn't that hurt. NoJo (if he even wants to play) may want to thank Hartman. The rational part of my brain says this theory is stupid, but I like conspiracies and NoJo getting "elbowed"/going down just looked like a dive to me.

He's got hands of stone, both a good thing, and a bad thing. It's painful to watch him with the puck. Makes me think I'd have a chance in the NHL.

I think we all saw it coming as a loyalty deal from Guerin. Foligno has a role and he got paid slightly higher than he produces on paper. It's hardly the coffin-nail for the Wild. They're almost free from salary cap penalties and the future is bright. 

It's just hard to watch the Wild do the kind of roller-coaster stuff they did in the past that we thought was history cause each year they look legit for periods of time. 

There's rookies getting better and vets who we will rejoice when gone.(#90. I'll be lighting fireworks, having a beer, and howling at the moon.)

They can never just put it all together. Ek has been less effective, Boldy on the perimeter, Knudi with no linemates, and in the absence of Kaprizov and the Norwegian Hobbit, Minnesota is always missing at least one link. Hard to watch and keep the hope alive sometimes having been here before. Like deja vu all over again.

I'll admit that I'm a relatively new fan so I don't have the deep history that some of the posters here have. Despite this, I enjoy the back and forth as we plot the next move for our team, lol.

Thanks for the input.

Need this boys. Try to look competent. 

...or don't, whatever. Masterclass by the Bruins on the boards behind the goal and not enough fight from Bolds and company to move the puck. I want my Russian Baby Jesus back.
