Finally, some hockey! Let it be known that I do not care for the All-Star Weekend at all. Make it at the end of the season instead of after the halfway mark. Now that that's out of the way, on to the show.
Remember when a 3rd period Wild lead was insurmountable? Clearly the Wild don't. Mike Yeo has to be fuming after what he just witnessed. The Wild suddenly became lemmings on the ice, spinning around, looking lost, unable to clear the zone...and Harding... I don't mean to be hard on him, but that last goal should not go past an NHL-caliber goalie. He lost his focus at the most crucial of times. I dare say this was the most painful loss of the season...hell, it was one of the most painful losses I can remember.
A few facts:
Heatley has 4 goals against the Predators this season.
Heatley has 7 points in his last 3 games.
Nick Johnson is the best waiver pickup ever. (Yes, he is, don't fight it)
Via Russo on Twitter: First time the #mnwild has blown 3-goal lead for a loss since Feb. 14, 2009 (Ottawa), but that 3-0 lead was in first
