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.......

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.

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.

Unfortunately Faber went out of the game with an injury. This on the heels of losing Spurgeon to a dirty hit from Zach L’Heureux. Still pisses me off the officials got in between everyone before Trenin could pulverize him. We have that to look forward to the next time we play the Preds.

Trying to tread water until Special K gets back but when you are short handed and guys like Faber and KK has to play extra shifts and lines to make it up.....they will wear down.
