So what do we make of all this? Are the Wild just that much better when the team of 18,000 isn't screaming "SHOOOOOOT!" at them? Are they unable to just relax and play their game for a full 60 minutes in St. Paul? Does the 1st period interrupt nap time?
It almost feels like it, doesn't it?
Now, when the Wild are in a holding pattern around a 'win and you're in' situation, the woes at home hurt the most. It has a lot of people saying "At least they won't have the extra home game in a playoff series", which is a pretty ridiculous thought pattern if you think about it. Not wanting extra home games in the playoffs? It's almost blasphemous!
Should we be worried? Not at all. Not yet at least. The race for the final playoff spots are tight, and it's never easy but it's going to take some sort of major disaster at this point, or an anti-miracle if you will, for them to extend their season.
Until next time, be excellent to each other!
