Yeah give Suter a break. His linemate change from Weber to Spurgeon and Parise's from Zajac to Koivu.

NJ's first line was Parise-Elias-Kovalchuk if I'm not fully mistaken.

[Sportserie]

I can't wait until Suter starts taking more shots.

[Dee Oh Cee]

I will be at the game tonight...first game of the season so obviously I'm very excited for that.

[Generic User]

Hope Suter flips Weber via hip check.

[Billy Mays Here]

Someone post the banner image. "I'm in, are you?" "Nope."

Exactly. lol I hope for this too. Pred fans want Weber to level Suter so we sure as heck want our guy to defend himself. Thus, Suter should get to Weber first. LOL

[rynryn]

if weber crosses the line to talk to Suter in an aggressive manner, I'm curious to see what Konopka does. (since that's his thing...looking out for people crossing the line)

Considering my respect for Weber went down a notch after his hit on Zetterberg in the plaoyffs, i hope he gets his nose smashed. Konopka won't give a **** either way

I really want to win these first 3 at home. 2 down. 1 to go.

Cmon boys!

[mtxed]

Harding?

[Dee Oh Cee]

Russo says most likely Backstrom...based on the morning skate.

[tomgilbertfan]

Niklas Backstrom taking shots from D. Usually means he's starting #MNWild

Russo.

David Poile having a long, friendly chat with Chuck Fletcher throughout the skate. Proves business is business; still buds #suter

Every time #MNWild plays #preds, they sit thru skate. Lot of respect between Fletcher and Poile; Poile knew Fletcher when he was a kid

Some Preds' fans seem like they're implying that there's now hatred between Suter and Weber. That's not the case. They text each other often and remain friends.

Weber and Suter are still friends and Suter talked to Legwand daily during training camp; I expect Weber to come over and chat for a bit during warm-ups. I don't expect any fireworks between the two whatsoever, and I wouldn't expect anything of the sort from anyone else really. Maybe if Tootoo were still here.

[Dee Oh Cee]

Also, Russo speculated that he thinks Chris Mason is starting as well.

That's good. That's the way it should be.

Oh please let this be true.

yes yes yes yes yes

[Haite]

Preds on a back-to-back game with Mason in net, the only way I'd see Wild losing that is by not winning.

[Sportserie]

^ Agreed. We are rested, haven't had to travel yet at all. Preds had long games too. This is our game to win.

[tomgilbertfan]

Konopka loudly during large Suter media scrum before first game vs. #Preds : "They didn't want ya Suts, didn't want ya." #MNWild

Konopka is the best.
