    Crap. I knew Talbot was out but thought I heard something quick on the radio about getting back to full strength. Guess I heard wrong!

    Excited to watch tonight. BTW, screw Bally, Dish, and most all the providers. Bunch of BS still

    It’s on ESPN.

    Wild need to stay out of the BS…Bruins trying to get them to engage in a sloppy game.

    I think we’re going to see the Moose cut loose in the 2nd period, Boston taking too many liberties out there on our skill guys..

    Goofy period!?!

    Boldy looks good, Rossi playing nervous (to be expected)

    2nd period should be good..buckle up…

    damn right what a shift he had and great finish. He and Rossi have looked very good. Boldy a bit better but man this is awesome.

    Small sample size but boldy has deff stood out all game. He keeps that up how do you send him down? Rossi has shown flashes but yes he does look nervous out there. Just impressed how boldy doesn’t seem to be getting over powered or bullied. Loved how he called for the puck with the stick tap and finishes on a return from moose

    On a side note how has that nose not been broke? Hell take a turn to sharp and you think the guy would catch that beak

    Not saying it directly led the the Kaprizov injury, but Moose should have fought Frederick early on in the 2nd to send a message that his BS wont be accepted…

    Worried that might have re-aggravated his backwards feet first slide from the Winnipeg game. Kinda similar goofy limp.

    Looked like a shoulder injury to me…Kaprizov has a bit of a diva quality to him when he appears to be really hurt and then he comes back out to play…. We’ll see… fingers crossed its not a broken collar bone or bad shoulder separation.

    yep and moose should have gone after him. I’m not a fan of sending someone to get their head beat in but Frederic needs it. Quite the history.

    I went to BSU where Bob Peters was known for sending out fighters. I was at a game where he pointed at a player on the bench to get out on the ice and take out someone who was running them all night. There were 5 guys on the ice already and it ended poorly for the other team. He sent the guy out there so 6 guys lol

    If you call missing Spurg, Ek, Greeway, Bjugstad, Duhaime, and Talbot full strength. Then yeah. Could definitely use a W…

    We could sure use our big guy line tonight! Being down spurgeon, ek, and greenway was bad enough, but lose kaprizov mid game and our bench looks awfully sparse. Dewar, addy, Boldy, and Rossi have all been holding their own which is excellent to see but man we could use some more beef this game.

    We need to add a big/tough/nasty defenseman, we’re way too soft in front of our net… John “The Giraffe” Merrill is not a playoff defenseman…

    Totally agree!! I thought Benn was supposed to our guy for that. He has been a let down. Addison is about as physical as that guy is…

    I know Bergeron is one of the best faceoff guys in the league, but Sturm needs to do alot better than that at the end of the game…

    Outstanding game from Kaapo. In a weird & emotional game with a lot of weird stuff going on, he was the difference. He looks ready roll with Cam out.

    Looks like a separated shoulder to KK, hopefully no surgery or anything crazy like that. Totally sucks it happened and TFred is a clown.

    Thought Boldy and Dewar were great, they could easily stay with the big club the rest of the season. Dewar with Sturm & Duhaime would be a great energy line. Thought Rossi was pretty vanilla… didn’t notice him much, either good or bad.

    Boldy is here to stay, Dewar impressed, Rossi was decent and was obviously nervous the first 1/2 of the game. He was getting pushed/thrown all over the ice though, so he obviously needs to add more bulk to his frame or he’ll never survive a whole season. It will be fun to see how he progresses the next 8 games, but sending him back to Iowa afterwards is the right move.

    Kaprizov’s curlback move along the boards exposes himself to getting charged from guys coming back on defense but he was awkwardly falling sideways at the time of the hit so it was a fluke play…

    I guess its now a good thing we only have 1 game in the next 8 days, time for him to heal up if its not a major injury…

    Same here Lindy! Saw during the Winter Classic that tonight’s game was on ESPN and I’ve been planning on it all week, good game to watch! 2 Wild games in 6 days!
