The failure of this team to rack up goals on the man advantage has been KILLING this team this season. Not as much as shoddy goaltending but its definitely the second biggest handicap of this team throughout the season.
Well that was a long shootout and a cruddy chance to gain another point in a tight playoff race to try and keep the 7th playoff spot. I only caught bits and pieces of the game last night but wow does this team look different toward the end of a game in which its either tied or within one goal without Koivu on the ice and taking the draws.
Kind of a slow newsday this weekend because of the holiday I'm sure. Happy Easter today everybody!

Wild Wary Of Letting Up With Playoff Spot Not Quite Secure " CBS Minnesota
This team can't afford to give up considering the last three games of the season are against the top three teams in the Central Division--the toughest division in all of hockey.
Mikko Koivu of Minnesota Wild out with eye injury
This team missed the Kaptain late in the game. From the Yeo presser it seems like he has a scratched cornea but should be good-to-go for Monday.

A quick look at the rest of the week and what it could mean for the Central division. I can guarantee Central teams will be cheering on the Wild to beat other Central teams. Should be interesting.
