Article: It All Comes Down To Game #82


Recommended Posts

And here we are, Wild needing another OT flip of the coin to determine fate against a lower caliber team this season.  This doesn't bring confidence nor dominance as they prepare for life after regular season.  Wonder if we will win a game or a long shot 2 games against Las Vegas.  Not trying to be negative, the facts and stats continue to tell the same story.

Needing a goal in the last 2 mins against an eliminated team does not do anything to bolster confidence for the playoffs, I agree. However, this is what the Wild have done all season....finding a way to win games. If this continues into the playoffs, that's good for us. A W is a W. We've put ourselves in a matchup that gives us the best chance to get out of the first round. 

Now lets see if a fully healthy team that was once the top of the NHL can execute.

Just like the Sharks I give the Ducks a ton of credit and respect for not simply mailing it in. Both those teams played HARD all the way to 82. Future looks bright for both those franchises but the Ducks look a shade closer to contention. If Anaheim gets stronger, more mature on the backend look out. Fun to watch their aggressive, fast, high octane offense.
