I've got no vCash. Actually I've got nothing to say. What I'm doing here?
EDIT: I do have some vCash. Uh, where did that come from? Do I have to bet? Life's a mystery...
I had nothing to say, but I said something. Then thought I don't have any vCash, but I had. I can't do anything right, right? Now I'm quoting myself and trying to explain it. And explaining only makes it worse..
I've got a Zidlicky in my locker room.
EDIT: I did bet!! ...so back to the starting point, phew.
Yes! We can set a record! Who else needs to make their NHL debut this season?
We're starting to run out (how do you get 55 players with a 50 contract limit? Wow) but we still have Genoway, Medvec, and...Bagnall? I think I'm missing at least one Houston guy.

Trades and waivers and signings.
So who is down in Houston and has yet to make their Wild Debut?

It was somewhat rhetorical, but even with trades and waivers, the Wild have "lost" two players to waivers, added one via waivers, and added 5 players via trade, and we still will run out of potential players before hitting 55.
Wild scored-against drinking game! Seriously, we need to support them still! - in losing so we can get a great draft pick for once...
Our injury situation is interesting. I am wondering what others think of our extreme injuries for years running now. Is it just bad luck with certain players, poor conditioning combined with demanding requirements, or an impractical system.
I personally do not like excuses, and generally believe that the given problems are sourced from oneself. That in mind, do we need to adapt our system to be more reasonable? Is it unreasonable? I know Yeo last year went to the Calder Cup using the same system, and had the appropriate players for the given skill level; which could point to us just having bad luck. I am undecided and am trying to figure out what we need to do better next year to avoid this particular problem again.

Opinions please.
The Wild have not been properly executing Yeo's system since the collapse started, except in short bursts. The players have completely lost all adherence to it.

True, and it is reasonable with the "revolving door" we've had. But I'm mostly interested in the injury issues this year to so many players and the cause and trend of that. We cannot keep having this happen and be successful and I want to figure out it's causes and how to fix them.
