    The Wild Bunch were determined and desperate last night and played like it. But how are the Blues playing over 500 hockey? They looked more like the Wild have been all season. Couldn't break out of their zone cleanly to save their lives. And that had nothing to do with the Wild fore checking or being in the passing lanes. Every pass was in the skates or off the heel of the stick killing a zone entry. Their power play was as bad as the Wilds. They were the exact team the Wild needed to play. 

    Lots of fanned on shots as well but still two pipe ringers had one or both of them gone in, a different game. I'm guessing the Wild will go like eight out of the next ten now because that's usually how a coaching change works. They will claw their way back to relevancy and become watchable.
