He was basically saying the staff doesn’t trust him 5 on 5. They haven’t for over a month.

Russo going hard on Rossi right now on kfan.

Not sure I would agree that Spurs is a liability. Or that he should not wear the C because he gets overpowered at times.

Don’t think you are off about that game being 50/50. The special teams and depth I think will win this series for Vegas. Wild have a chance just think it’s going to be tough. Which any series is.

Thought the game was played pretty tight by both teams. Thought Zeev was a bit overwhelmed with the speed which is not surprising at all in his first game.
Man is it tough to get anything going between the dots against Vegas.
This team just lacks the depth that the big boys play with. One line is tough to beat Vegas.

Maybe, but there are a lot of fishing days listening to games and a lot of listening to games around a campfire still to come. If baseball is all about wins & losses for you maybe you ought to find something else?

I have like most.

I would question if anyone inside the organization would trust Pat at all with such information. He talks a big game.

Pretty well connected in the hockey world.
Guess we will see. If I had to bet on 1 FA signing I’d put my money there.

Petterson might be nice but not going to be cheap and I think he’d be a locker room cancer. I like nelson alot but he’s only got a few years left but he is solid on both ends and wins FO

I was referring to free agents when I originally posted. Trades are a whole different take at this point and is pure speculation on any front for a trade scenario.

Both the NBA & NHL teams seasons are 2 weeks from being over. The Twins will survive without you until then.

And the Twins season is already over.

Yeah 13 points in 19 games since joining the avs? Who exactly should this big fish be? McDavid McKinnon Tkachuck?

Have to sign Nelson for the versatility he brings and the fact he can play anywhere in all situations. I don’t get the sign Boeser for 7 years but Nelson only 1.

If Colorado doesn’t win the Cup, the price they paid to rent Nelson looks absolutely terrible…

Most deadline rental trades look terrible if you don’t win the cup.

I think Nelson signs a 3 year deal. Not a chance it’s 2 years or less.

The boat is a 620 Ranger.

What year makes a big difference the hull change they made raised the bow a lot. My 09 ranger was fine with a 60.

More power grunt grunt.

Michaletti was on kfan today saying wild have one name circled this summer on a FA deal. Wouldn’t give the name but they basically narrowed it down to one Brock and it wasn’t the one in Vancouver.

What year ranger? Makes a big difference. I agree river waves from boat much different than constant lake waves.

Electric.

Drove around west side to grab the boat today. Pretty quiet out there today. A little ice slush on south end but that was about it. Brisk wind up there today was a bit chilly early in day. Thought about putting in water looks low on west side.

But in salary cap raising time that’s like equivalent to 100 bucks.

I kind of agreed TSW. As much as the 20 seconds and OT were awesome this team basically backed into the playoffs. Granted Ek and KK were out. I just don’t see how they can compete with Vegas especially in the special teams front.
With that said get in and give it a whirl. The buyouts are officially over and there are some things to be excited about moving forward.
Playoff hockey is just another level and another learning experience for everyone. Either way hopefully it’s a building block to something bigger and stronger in the near future.

I was in the same situation as you, I had it on because it was on actual TV that real people might get, and mainly because I want to keep my young boys actively interested in baseball.

Don’t trust me. Get them interested in any other sport besides baseball.

Calgary ties it 3 to 3. This season may have literally come down to 20 seconds and 1 goal.

Was their ever a doubt they would make the playoffs.

And flower with a W….Give him first star.

Yeah don’t see the point in putting your best players out there.

Flower gets his send off.

Looks like the blues are going to Cruze to a W.

Hoping Rossi pots six tonight to hit that 30 goal mark.

I would assume this is the playoff game 1 lineup, until 3 or 4 guys get injured tonight. Gotta say they picked a hell of a time to finally get healthy. Rossi, Boldy, and Freddy the only players to make all 82 games this year. Bogo 81.

I would agree with that statement.

John Hynes said it wasn’t an “easy” decision to not play Zeev Buium. It was combination of factors. Talked about Buium just getting here from Frozen Four, not having a full team practice, the high stakes of this game. Indicated could see action if make playoffs.

The casual fan Twitter comments are absolutely gongshow hilarious! Hynes better have the secret service around him at the X tonight

Got to love the classic hockey cliche.
