***Official Wild Chat April & May thread***

[Hornets]

New month! New thread!! Hard to believe we are heading quickly down the home stretch and the chase for Lord Stanley will soon begin. The Wild have a key home and home series with the Knights and just as the Colorado game was it's a wonderful opportunity to show the NHL that this team means business and could indeed make a playoff push. Sounds like Reaves still banged up and is questionable and Jonas had to skip yesterday's practice...I'm a bit worried about him. Assume that MAF goes tonight and Gus Monday night.

LETS GO WILD!!!

[Hornets]

Looks like both Reaves and Duhaime out again tonight....

[Lightning]

get at it, boys!

Joe Smith had an update about 30 minutes ago saying both are playing.

Good news! But now Shaw goes down... favoring his knee. Damn.

[Hornets]

Boldy?¡!!!!!!!!!!

[Hornets]

Boldy does indeed get credit for the goal!

[Hornets]

Sounds like plenty of Minnesota fans in attendance...fun game to go to!

Shaw looked like a noob on crappy lake ice trying to stop for the first time.

[Hornets]

Damn... Knights tie it up

[MN Mediocrity]

Of course they score on there 2nd shot, ten minutes in.

[LwnmwrMan222]

Hmph.

[Hornets]

Vegas takes the lead...looks like one MAF should have had...

[Stu Pedaso]

How does this work? Are the down a forward then or are they allowed to have a guy on the bench to sub?

I don't know the rules?

[MN Mediocrity]

This feels like a loss if Vegas scores on every 4th shot.

[MN Mediocrity]

Boldy is the only guy who can keep possession for more than 3 seconds.

[Hornets]

Not a bad period but down 1...

[Justin Kase]

Down a forward, can’t take a guy out of the press box. The roster they turned in for the game is what they have to roll with, unless it’s goalie, there’s an emergency goalie exception, where there is a backup in attendance that could potentially go in for either team. At least I think that’s how it works.

[Justin Kase]

I was late to the game, had a bunch of crappies to clean, got off the lake a little lake. Play seems to be about even.

[LwnmwrMan222]

Been awake since 5 am yesterday morning. Guess it's time to get some sleep.

[MN Mediocrity]

I could beat fluery glove side.

[Justin Kase]

I mean, they are nice shots, but MAF is just plain getting beat by them. Vegas entering and attacking the zone with more structure it seems.

[Hornets]

Too tired to keep watching.... I remember a time in my younger days when I'd just be heading out around this time. That time has long passed...

[LwnmwrMan222]

I could beat fluery glove side.

It's crazy how slow he is with the glove some nights.

That’s just it…. He’s really played well for a stretch here, I think he won a couple of games that easily could have been losses. There are some games where, as you said, he’s just a little slow with the glove. Teams have to know that in today’s game where they have all of the info at their hands.

Ok, so I also have to say he did just make a helluva glove save! Gotta give him credit when it’s due.

[Hornets]

Wild dealt a blow when Shaw went out very early in the game....hard to play almost an entire game a man short, everything gets discombobulated.

[LwnmwrMan222]

Hopefully the Wild can play with the Knights tomorrow night and win.

I think it might be an early matchup for the Western Conference finals.

Yep, in my mind it's a HUGE game and the Wild need to come out guns a blazin from the opening faceoff. No official word yet but I imagine Shaw is done for the year...
