Still, why don't we feel confident? Well, because James Neal is on fire this season, Jordan Staal is an underrated player, and to be honest, Matt Cooke will be on the ice. If the Wild can come out without someone taking an elbow to the head, we will all feel lucky.
This is not a team to overlook, even with three of the best players in the game out of the lineup. They can still score, they can still play a solid defensive game, and they have outstanding goaltending. If the Wild think for a second this will be a cake walk because of the absentees, they will get crushed. They need to play their game, and not stop playing it when the other team starts playing theirs.
This is a winnable game. Now it is up to the players to go out and win it.
