Sad People Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Lets go Wild, Game 4 is about to start, Lets make it 3-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikeManDan Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Disappointing game from the looks of it, I didn't expect the Blues to roll over. Have to get the Power Play figured out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcblack34 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Playoff hockey is always exciting. But I'd prefer a lot less excitement and a lot more Wild steamrolling... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sad People Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) Tough loss with the Blue D core being pretty depleted, If we end up losing the series I will be highlighting this game as the turning point as it was a golden opportunity Edited May 9, 2022 by mattyice0401 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshpit23 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 (edited) Disappointing loss tonight. The Wild let this series skate away. Blues 3-2 heading back to St. Louis for game 6. This leaves the Wild on a slippery, icy hill to climb. We need to slash the Blues in the next 2 games to advance; that’s the ultimate goal. Seems unlikely at this period of the series. Another Minnesota let down? I hope not! Edited May 11, 2022 by marshpit23 The 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted May 11, 2022 Author Share Posted May 11, 2022 Sorry guys. It was 2-1 when I turned on the game. I should have known better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 When the Blues have pretty much dominated the Wild over the last 2 years no matter where they play, I gave them little chance to win the series anyway. It was the one opponent you wouldn't have wanted them to play this early. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the one opponent you wouldn't have wanted them to play this early. Colorado would have been even tougher. I don't think either of The Blues or The Wild will have a real chance to beat them unless they lose a few of their best players to injury. I think The Blues will win Game 6 at home and the series will be over, unless Binnington sinks back into his non-focused slump mode. I can't really see that happening. With Leddy and Bortuzzo back, it's much more difficult for The Wild to take advantage of The Blues' 3rd defensive pairing, and their 2nd pairing, and without Mikkola playing on The 1st pairing, dragging Parayko down. And The Blues getting Perunovich back for The Power Play makes The Blues better, as well, making up for their loss of Krug. And The Blues have played better on The Road in this series. So, even IF they lose at home in Game 6, it will be tough for The Wild to beat them 2 consecutive games. Also, The Blues have Talbot's number. So, if Evason makes the mistake of starting him in Game 6, just for a change-of-pace catalyst for the team, that will make their task even harder.

Sad People Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 With a little bit of surprise the Minnesota wild pull a Minnesota sports team and get dropped in the 1st round Had a feeling it was over after that game 4 loss but still wanted to believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikeManDan Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Disappointing end to a great season. It's a shame that one of the Wild or Blues were going home after round 1. Series really went downhill with Game 4. Going to be an interesting off-season for the Wild. Up next to disappoint are the Twins! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to believe it's been 30+ years since the '91 World Series. That was a great season...and '92 was a better team, although they didn't get there. Nothing will beat '87 though...that was the year before I went to HS. It was the best year for Minnesota sports ever for me. Vikings = NFC Championship Game, Twins = World Series, The HS I would attend the next year = State Hockey Champions...the only letdown (unbeknownst to all of us at the time) ended up being Minnesota awarded a NBA team.
