(Sharks commentary) ... minnesota won in a shootout. Devin Setoguchi by the way, had a penalty shot in overtime in that game... but he missed... but he remained upright
Even more reason for us to dislike him. Ruin our draft, then suck next year. Count on it
Ruin our draft by winning games and playing good hockey?
I will take that any day of the week. This team was number 1 in the NHL and we have a lot of good prospects coming up. We don't need this draft outside of a defenseman and there will be plenty of them in the range we will be picking.
Good win. Nice to see Zucker having an effect on the game already. Bodes well for the future! Really don't want to see Bulmer again this year...want to hold on to his rights as long as possible.

Cry less and enjoy the win.
We don't need this draft? the ****?
And yes, playing good hockey at this point does ruin our draft position.
Outside of a D-Man we don't have any real NEEDS. Drafting another top forward prospect would just allow us some trade bait, which is good and all...but winning games is better.

Well, I am glad you are not a part of the Wild organization. People purchase tickets to see wins, and I am glad the team is delivering.
Watched part of the game. Why didn't we shoot the puck at the boards in the shootout?
On a positive note Zucker looks like he will be great for the Wild in the future. If he can put some muscle on his frame he's going to be a star. He actually shoots first and asks questions later which is one thing the Wild have missed for a long time.
For the love of god, this CBC color guy might be worse than Greenlay.
Eh CBC is ok, I prefer TSN commentators though. Most American regional broadcasts I watch don't have the same knowledge, passion, or entertainment to listening to them. Hell I'd rather turn off the commentating among most American broadcasts aside from NBC or FSN.
Its too bad we didn't show this resilience when it mattered to the Wild. Zucker had a great game and I like a lot of what I saw. He took his chances to shoot and relaxed and played his game. I have to say, I really wasn't overly impressed with Christensen early but now I think he's making a pretty good case to stick around. There certainly are worse players we could use at his position. (shrugs) It should make for a real dog fight tomorrow in Chicago; hopefully they can continue to play well. I have prospect reports on Colton Jobke, Mario Lucia, Anthony Hamburg, Nick Seeler, and Tyler Graovac. Enjoy!
Sweet we're back to our winning ways......just as the season is ending and we're in the top 5 drafting.
In GMCF I trust. This same *****ing was going on last year I am sure with calls for the tank. GMCF turned the tenth pick into Jonas Brodin. We will be fine wherever we end up.
