Great GDT.

Going to this one live, it'll be my 5th of the season.

Hopefully Ramsey beats up Aliu for the bit he tried to pull on Stoner.

Oh wait, we have to go with our actual squad. Hmmmm.

I doubt Yeo would have Granlund play point on the first powerplay unit.

Urheilulehti's (weekly Finnish sports magazine) Savolainen says on Twitter that Granlund takes Koivu's spot and Mikko takes up Heatley's position in front of the net. I'm assuming he watched the practice since he lives in Minneapolis, but I don't know where he got it from. He's pretty reliable, though, he's buds with Russo.

Here's the tweet in Finnish:

Granlund pääsee näyttämään vahvuuksiaan. Koivu sijoittuu maalin edustalle,MG:n roolina pyörittää peliä.Nyt olisi hyvä paikka onnistua #änäri

I have to admit, it would be fun to come to this board and see the chaos if Granlund had a great game and was then scratched. Sure, I'd be upset as well, but it might be an adventure worth having!

Here's the tweet in Finnish:

I always felt Heatley was better suited in the slot instead of in front of the net because of his shot. I suppose his non-mobility is what causes Yeo to continue having him stand in front of the net.

I like Koivu in front much better.

jjtt · 02-26-2013, 03:54 PM

so the pp lines are

Parise-Koivu
Granlund
Spurgeon-Suter

Cullen-Heatley
Seto-Bouchard
Gilbert

Bet all my vMonies on Calgary. If we're going to lose I'm going to get something out of this game...

TheSaw · 02-26-2013, 04:00 PM

I'm going to be furious if we lose.
That being said, 2-1 Calgary.

GopherState · 02-26-2013, 04:10 PM

Nice to see some true undefeated players recognized on the road to 48-0. Ski-U-Mah!

But really though, i missed Saturday's Calgary game but i'm watching this one. Hopefully it is a good all-around game.

One of these days I should do another GDT and double down on my 1-0 record.

Wild better not win this one or it'll cost them multiple cups in the future.

Timothy Freitag · 02-26-2013, 04:18 PM

5-1 Wild. The boys are going to figure out how to put the puck to the back of the net tonight.

Look at what happened on here when Calgary beat us on Saturday. What'll happen if (dare I say it) we lose to them AGAIN tonight?

Might be a good time to stay off these boards for a few days.

Sportserie · 02-26-2013, 04:35 PM

We absolutely have to win this tonight. Any loss is tough but this one would be extra tough.

DANOZ28 · 02-26-2013, 04:51 PM

Today is an exciting day, we get to see a win or a black hole being born.

But you're asking for counterbalance when you tag "Puhis is sexy"

Also, winning is sexy.

My prediction: Wild's offence finally starts to produce and we see an amazing game with plenty of highlight reel goals from Wild and mostly everyone has a great game, including Granlund who flourishes on the first PP unit. Bäckström gets a 9 save shutout. Heatley has a breakaway.

Reasoning: I can't watch the game.
