Tim, you are right It all comes down to Leo. I was super excited that July 4th. I knew the length (and salaries) would eventually bite us in the ass but I thought we would get a couple kicks at the cup can. After, about, the 2nd playoff failure it hit home hard. We were screwed for 10 years.

I feel for you all

This looks very discouraging
Long winter ahead

A very long winter indeed

Feels like tonight, we are thinking "show up and win, because we're at home"
We proved last year, that's a joke.

Does this Wild team have potential of being the worst Wild team ever?

This team is a complete dumpster fire in the making. A few more loses and our big contract boys will just show up if and when they want to and keep stealing money from Leipold.
The sad thing is, we could have the worst record in hockey this season and will still probably end up drafting a smooth skating Swede with no stick skills.....

Been amazing to watch this thing fall apart
Everythings swirling today
You heard it here first … BB doesn't make the week.

Russo went back to being whiny Russo.
Turned out a story yesterday about Donato being the nicest guy on the planet, and this week a kid hung around him for one of those special visit type of things …
Anyway, Russo and "Wild fans" are now livid that Donato was scratched.
I get it.
I know how it looks.
But ……. if we are truly trying to be good, does that type of thing matter? We owe Donato what?
The only thing I can say I agree with is that RASK got the nod, and that's wrong too.
But as far as "Donato should have played because he had a sick kid visiting him" …… nope. Nope. Nope.

As much as I want to dumpster fire this thing, I actually switched gears and saw positives.

Negatives ….
* lets not kid ourselves. Everything, really. Came in with a piss poor attitude and left worse
* horrific lack of scorers. 4-5 chances at least in the first period should have been put in the net
* horrific goaltending. One of your goalies worst outings, ever. Childish attitude, along with no athleticism and no vision, makes you an awful goalie. Embarrassing night.
* sorry, but Zucker is my whipping boy. He's sickening to watch. Celebrated his tip-in goal like it won the Stanley Cup. Makes you look like a me-only selfish prick. Had two open nets when it was 6-4 late and whiffed on both.

Positives ….
* a couple truly professional grinders. Foligno and Hartman and Ek got better as the play got dirtier. Penguins remind me of the old 49er dynasty team. Looked at as finesse, but full of guys who will cut your achilles to win. And only a handful of our guys responded.
* not usually a Kunin fan, but I loved his late goal and his reaction to it. The anti-Zucker. Get out of my face, Get to the face off dot, this is embarrassing.
* Zuccarello is a real NHL player. Can play with anyone. He'll settle in here.
* Loved the lineup out there late while still trying to win. Foligno, Hartman, Hunt, Spurgeon. The homers made note of it …. no Parise, no Suter, No Staal. About time.

Parise is done....the energizer bunny has lost his juice. He belongs on the 3rd or 4th line from here on out.
Staal is done.....he may still have his moments, but his best days are far behind him.
Koivu is done....the sad thing about that is he is still our best center. Please take note Billy!
Suter is still rock solid at defense, but will not dominate and control the flow of the game like he once did.
It tells you everything we need to know about our offense when your best 2 scorers play defense.
Bottom line as I see it.... we need to start our rebuild asap.

No one all excited about the game today?

Time to prove we can embarrass ourselves on a Monday afternoon.
Happy Thanksgiving Day, Canada!
You are our hat, after all!

I'm very excited about our potential descent to getting the top pick in the next draft.

The Wild called up our season changer, GERALD MAYHEW! Now I know some of you are saying Gerald Maywho? Well, he's a 170 lbs soaking wet, so you know SMF is going to love him. The Wild signed him out of Ferris State after the 2016/2017 NCAA season. He has been the leading scorer and consensus best player on the Iowa Wild for 2 years now.

If he turns out to be the forward equivalent of Jared Spurgeon, I will be damn happy.
