Minnesota Aeros Vs. Edmonton Oilers: Game Recap

For the enemy perspective, please visit The Copper & Blue

Is the season over yet? Just one more game after this one. We all know what an embarassing mess the game was last night, so how would they fare against a team that's also just waiting for this season to end?

Game notes:

First ever season sweep of the Oilers for the Wild... yippeeeeee

The first period's PIM tally makes it a franchise record for the Wild

Another franchise record: 20 road wins. Still didn't get them to the playoffs.

Hockey Wilderness 3 stars:

1) Mikko Koivu (Was filled with rage all game long, 3 assists)

2) Jared Spurgeon (Goal in his hometown, love this kid, hope he gets even better)

3) Pierre-Marc Bouchard (3 assists)

5 questions:

1. Will someone, anyone, step up and show some fire? There certainly was a lot of fire and Sorry Tom, which was good to see. Mikko Koivu played with a temper. PIssed off Koivu = greatness.

2. Jose Theodore is playing for a contract, does it show? Had a very solid night, had one hiccup that led to a goal, but was flawless otherwise

3. Pride. Any of that to be seen tonight? Yep, it's been a while. This would've been nice a month ago

4. So, how about those Swarm, eh? I gotta check them out. I like Lacrosse.

5. Has there ever been a time Wild fans wanted an off-season more than this one? I would've prefered the off-season to come after our playoff run, but alas, it was not meant to be. Now, we just want this season to be over.
