At this point, even Yoda doesn't know where to find the Wild's pride. That's not good. The goofy little green muppet always has some good to say, right? "Do, or do not, there is no try." When resorting to a cheap Star Wars plug is the best you've got, things are desperate. That's all I've got.
After the game, the Wild locked out the media for half an hour while they discussed the situation with the coaches. Most times in the NHL, this would result in a Tuesday game worth watching, as the Wild would come out guns blazing, angry and out for blood.
My bet? Nothing changes.
That's where we are at on this side of the glass, folks. In baseball, if a pitcher has walked three guys, there is no reason for the batter to swing the bat. The think is "Make him throw a strike." The Wild have to prove they have some fire before I am going to give them any credit for having pride in their bellies.
Sorry guys. Throw a strike.
