raithis Verified Member Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I wasn't terribly interested in watching the 4 Nations stuff, but my girlfriend wanted to watch it last night so we did. After that first period, I thought it might be a blow-out for Canada, but I'm glad the Swedes tightened down the screws and made a game of it. It was really weird seeing Ek wear 20. I kept on seeing the player wearing 14 and wondered why Ek was playing defense. Brodin was playing right side since he was paired up with Hedman. I know Brodin has the better skating ability to make it work on his off side, but I feel like Brodin on the left could have canceled McDavid out more. It might have been better to put Brodin on a different line if Hedman couldn't play right side. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the year Kunin and Greenway won gold with the US team. At the time MN's prospect pool looked good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkolWild73 Verified Member Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Shining again tonight. Boldy with a goal and an assist and Faber with an assist so far. 2-1 second period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imyourhuckleberry Verified Member Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Boldy success here could be a real boon to Guerin's 2025 free agency. Anyone they would sign in free agency for top 6 play is bound to play with either Kaprizov or Boldy. If Boldy shines on this stage, it could truly benefit the Wild. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
