  • Minnesota Wild vs Vancouver Canucks: Game Re-Cap


    Guest

    Please get the enemy perspective at Nucks Misconduct.

    It doesn't get much better than this, Wild fans. Save for a slow moving second period, this game had everything.

    With the game in hand, it was time for the 'Nucks and the Wild to settle some scores, and throw some fists. First, Boogey and Hordichuk decided to finish what they started, but Boogey fell down, got up, and pulled Hordichuk's jersey over his head. Being a truly old school enforcer, Boogey left Hordichuk alone, and the linesmen broke it up. Boogaard went to the box, and Hordichuk went to the locker room with a ten minute misconduct tacked on.

    66 PIMs and a final score of 5-2 Wild. As I said above. It doesn't get any better than this.

    1. Antti Miettinen (2G, 1A)

    2. Niklas Backstrom (29 saves on 31 shots)

    3. John Scott - I could have (and should have) gone with Koivu here, but man... that was one hell of a beat down.

    Five Questions to Answer:

    2. Any chance the refs can gang up on Alex Burrows? There was some joking when Burrows took a late penalty, but the game was out of hand already. It was a good call, too.

    3. Will Marty add one more game to his streak?  Not tonight. And only 12:10 TOI. Hmmm... didn't really notice that. Likely held out late in the game to prevent stupidity?

    4. Will the Wild extend their winning streak over playoff teams to 4? Yes, and in a beautiful manner, I might add.

    5. A 6:00 start at a home game? How unbelievably ridiculous is this? I'm not looking forward to missing over half of the first period because of this. From my watch, you missed the entire first period. Making concessions to America's hat doesn't seem to be the best idea for our fearless leader. It's alright though. You got to see the third, and that is all that matters.
