SotanKing Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 I am not hardcore fan of MNUFC but really happy to see them reach Conference finals.I have a colleague at work who has season tickets for Loons and is pretty passionaite about them. I do try to go to atleast 1-2 games every season...atmosphere in the new stadium was so good in the 2 games I've been there..definitely a unique experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Western Conference Final tonight.... Seattle is going to be incredibly hard to beat, but the Loons are coming off three straight 3-0 wins so you gotta feel good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted December 8, 2020 Author Share Posted December 8, 2020 Up 2-0. lost 3-2. I have 32 years of MN sports experience and for some reason I still got my hopes up. I should have known. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heimdallr Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 Kevin Molino announced he won't be returning to the Loons next year.... They offered him the max contract he can get in MLS (without being a Designated Player), which means he either got a DP offer from someone (unlikely), or he got an offer in a different country. He was 31 years old with two ACL tears and was very injury prone, but when he is on his game he is one of the best attackers in MLS. That is going to be a huge hole to fill. Really a bummer because he worked so well with Reynoso. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that it has something to do with a player that doesn't have to play defense but still gets to play offense. If their speed is really gone maybe they have some form of pinch runner for them too. Is it a player that is on the roster only for penalty shots?

A player that you can pay lots of money to, but only counts a certain amount against the salary cap. It allows teams to go after big name, expensive European players without being crippled by the salary cap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can they just have 1 of those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede700 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 How ridiculous. Is Jan going to make the "Let's Play Hockey" call? How about next year, the Vikings will be playing in the NFC North presented by UnitedHealth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
