Gamethread: Wild vs. Flyers (7:00 p.m.)

LFGW. Please play something resembling credible hockey. You should be able to do that against this struggling Flyers team. 

More like… John Tortilla and Anne Hathaway…. 

NOJO! I will take it.

Yay, one loser point to leave us at 39 points at the halfway point of the season. 

So, just 55 points in the second half and we might have a faint hope of a playoff spot....or. more likely, let's see where we end up in the lottery.

Guess it’s not a penalty to pull someone back if you’re playing the puck and can poke check.

Careless play in their own zone and a good forecheck by Philly. They had some bright spots where they were moving the puck well and the poof, they turned into pumpkins. I don’t get it.

 

Apparently there is no need for a gamethread for this one…

I wish there was one, but kindof glad there was not.

I was at the game tonight and that was brutal.  No communication, no defense, bad calls.  No clue how to enter the offensive zone, stupid attempts at no look passes. 

I am honestly not sure where the Wild go from here.  The refs hate them.  Coaches have no plan.  There is some talent, but they cannot even make a cross ice pass.  The biggest cheer of the night was Flower going bat-shit out of the net up to the dot.

That might have been the worst Wild game I have watched since I moved here in 2002.

Top 5 pick?  Here's hoping.

Hopefully tomorrow's PWHL game is a better experience.

From the games that I watched, they play a better brand of hockey and seem to be prouder of what they do.
