It's bad enough that we have a lockout. But can the Hockey Gods actually be that cruel to put our prospects through the same crap that their parent club went through last year....meaning injuries galore? Honestly, extremely concerned about concussions at this point. Enough is enough. Really nervous about Zucker.

Normally I'd be annoyed with this, but with the lockout, it's kind of fun to see a little bit of normalcy around this time of year.

Well, the Aeros sure seem to like to play the Wild's brand of boring ass hockey.

Well its from an Oilers fan, so that pretty much invalidates it.

[Foxlockbox]

Damn shame I missed this, when is the next game? And also I'm lazy so are the highlights up yet?

6 goals is boring?

And so were all 6 of our games against the Oilers last year, even tho most of them were actually pretty engaging.

Except for that Xmas Disaster... *clenches fists and shakes with rage*

2010:
Granlund
Coyle
Bulmer
Larsson
Zucker (IR)

2011
Brodin
Phillips

Two stellar drafts that make up the heft of Minnesota's AHL team.

[lacrosseguy]

Two great drafts, will be accurately be able to measure in about 3 years, but I know Im very bullish on these guys !

[b0rn2beWild]

I found hightlight video of that game on youtube but there wasn't FBJ's wrister goal. Is it anywhere on Internet?

[sirMcDuck]

That wrister was so beautiful that THE INTERNET couldn't handle it.

You can find a highlight reel from there (free highlights and scroll down a bit). Granlund's goal around 1:40 mark.

[this providence]

Ya, that shot from Granlund was quality.

[Victorious Secret]

I am upset that I missed this. Glad we could do well, other than Hackett. Glad to see Brodin on the score sheet.

[Jarick]

Granlund's goal was NASTY. So much like his Finnish league goals...step off the half wall, the other team flinches, water bottle pops.

Scandella has looked outstanding from what I can see. He's practically running the PP from the point.

you know all we have to do to change oiler fans' opinions is let them score a million goals and win. otherwise it's boring. they're just so damn predictable. It's tough to keep in mind that for every idiot that says something like that there are 10 who are normal.

Granlund has a pretty shot, and Brodin is actively being encouraged to play offense. I like where this is headed. we have a defensive dman who is showing early signs of offense and a playmaker with a wicked quick accurate shot.

Didn't Jacques always say PMB has a fantastic shot too? I could be misremembering. But it makes sense that guys who can rag the puck around like that would have the control necessary. Just a matter of getting them to use it.

[WiFi75]

Really should watch some of these games.. I'm not ready to invest in it before it's certain that NHL is done, though.

Guys are doing well! That game was surely treat to watch.

[Northland Wild Man]

Another game missed due to my work schedule.

It sounds like it was a very exciting game too.

I don't know about JL saying that, but PMB does have a great shot, he just too rarely uses it.

The guy has the hands, and the vision. It's just a matter of trusting in his ability to use it.

If he can truly come back, and contribute in a top-6 roll to his pre-concussion standards. I'll be happy to have him.
