Citizen Strife Verified Member Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Goalie voodoo, good defense, and timely puck luck (two stick lunges and a crossbar) are in the Wild's favor right now. They win not by overpowering opponents, but screwing with the opponent "just enough" to get the right goals when you least expect them. Winnipeg "deserved" to win, until they didn't't funny how games work. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pewterschmidt Verified Member Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Goalies are goofy. Doubting Wall & Oates after last season in Iowa was a rational reaction. Title should read: Wall to the Balls justifying his first round selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kappo Kahkonen not Kirill Kaprizov. lol yeah the Kaapo hype was a little ridiculous. He did have that 8 game stretch where he was on fire too though. Of course he was also older than Wallstedt was at this point. It'll be interesting to compare/contrast the numbers at the end of the year. Right now Wallstedt is leading the league in save% and Shutouts though, which is not a feat I recall Kaapo ever performing. I mean the guy has only played 13 career NHL games and a quarter of those are shutouts!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNCountryLife Verified Member Posted 10 minutes ago Share Posted 10 minutes ago Both goalies have played some great hockey in November. The Wall seems to be seeing the puck through people right now. Amazing play. A shout out to the team D-zone structure as well. The whole team seems to have bought into a style that limits high danger chances even when prolonged time in our own zone. The Jets owned us in the first period but only got a couple high danger chances because of the structure. We are doing something right that is frustrating opposing teams.

MNCountryLife Verified Member Posted 8 minutes ago Share Posted 8 minutes ago Zeev doesn't look as comfortable with Bogo as he did with Hunt. That isn't a knock on Bogo either. I thought he played pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
