If you learned anything from last nights game, you don't need an almost handicapping-ly beard to block shots in Minnesota. Wow.
Other than that, everyone played a pretty strong game. As per the usual, there was a costly breakout pass/clear that immediately resulted in a goal, but it was at the fault of Jonas Brodin's, apparently decided to meet Jared Spurgon's quota for him. PROGRESS!

Wild vs. Avalanche: Players don't 'call out' teammates - TwinCities.com
I've got one of those types on my HS team, and its the worst. I was the first man in on the forecheck, drove the carrier to the boards and funneled him into a hit for F2, F2 finishes the check and I pin the carrier on the boards, and F3 decides to jump into the corner for no logical reason. Yet, F2 calls me out for not being the 3rd man high. /rant.
