Whelp, here we go again. I spoke too early. This team is the same ole same ole. Can't score on a 4th netminder on a pretty blah franchise, at home. Queue up another BG blockbuster to bring in another bottom 6 forward. That'll recharge the batteries

I noticed the other day that the Duey's are playing in Toronto now. Maybe he can swing a trade for them. Tell them pick any 2 from our bottom 6 for the Duey's.......

Something that seems to be sliding under the radar is that Rossi has made another step forward. Last year, he broke through. This year he is breaking out. Rossi continues to score and now his passing game has taken a leap forward as he's piling up helpers. ESPN rankings actually have him #17 at his position. That is bona-fide top 6 status, bordering on top 3.

Yup, Rossi is playing like a 1st line center even without KK driving his line and is making quality plays night in and night out. Get another top center and let Ekker drive a power/checking 3rd line center and we are set down the middle for a while.

They just unveiled the "All quarter century" team during the first intermission.

After that performance by Darnold and the Vikings pissing away the #1 seed, I didn't think I could actually feel worse about MN sports yet......here we are

Hopefully Danila Yurov will be here next year to make that happen.

Weird win but I'll take it. We really need to get healthy. I made the comment the other day but we really can't keep relying on all this scoring from the D.
