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

C'mon, get in the thread

Everybody get in the thread, fishies

The Jets might be a tough out tonight, don’t bring the same game you brought last night, fellas.

LFGW.

Gross. Klinger...it looks like you've never played defense before. 

Don't know if it's OK to complement Jets here but Ehlers is so fun to watch.

This is going well.

Not!

The forwards on Minnesota's second power play unit have a combined four goals on the year.

 

Show some life, get one back.

Looks like a team absolutely primed to get swept in the first round.

The power play is worse, somehow, with Klingberg on the point and Johansson on it in JEEKs spot.

Oh man, Reeves was all alone in front.

Lets take another look at that PP then,

Jets are trying to implode. Somebody needs to put Maenalanen in his place.

Let's get em in round 2

Well bummer...I assumed tonight's game was another 8pm game like yesterdays. Just tuned in only to discover we're already 1 period in!

Despite the obvious of being down by 2, how else have the Wild looked so far? I see that they've outshot the Jets 12-4, so somewhat promising? Uffdah, Fleury has a .500 SV%, maybe not then? I also see that Rossi is in the lineup again but only has 2:32 of ice time, anything noteworthy? (Assuming that's not enough TOI for anyone to do anything).

Yeah, it's Gus Bus in the playoffs until he falters.

Not insurmountable, but down 0-2 after the 1st sucks.

Maybe Rossi can get the Wild going.

Gonna have to play more than two minutes.

Wild haven't had a ton of good chances, but have controlled play a bit. PP sucks.

I wouldn't necessarily put the goals on MAF. First was a defensive travesty by Klinger and the second was an odd rebound off of MAF's pads. That being said, it would be nice if he'd come up with one of those. 

Rossi doesn't look great.

I mean. The whole team looks like shit. Haven't created anything of real substance.

Thanks for the recaps!

Good chance by Mojo!

This will likely be the lineup game 1 of the playoffs minus whomever Nyquist goes in for. Be nice if they'd figure some stuff out this game, because I'm sure they'll rest a bunch of guys against the Preds.
