   2/13 in shootout attempts. I’d say *at least we won’t have to worry about them, come playoffs* …But I don’t think that’s going to be relevant

   Kaprisov just looks defeated

   It looked like we were doing pretty well keeping the vibes of the franchise high during cap hell- but this year and next could get ugly

   I think we might just suck, gang

   Well, glad I have the rest of the day to reflect on how fucking awful shootouts are

   Different continent, same garbage players on the same garbage team. See you tomorrow

   If this season gets any worse (and it will), I will look back to Kaprizov and Zuccarello passing up multiple offensive zone chances in OT as a fucking embarrassment that explains everything about this season.

   Be selfish for once, for fuck sake.

   Shootouts are dumb. On to the next one.

   (Please beat Toronto so my Leafs fan Sunday league teammates don’t get smug thx)

   Can’t even beat the fucking Senators.

    Wolves are finally good again and the Wild look as bad as the early expansion years, it can’t be a coincidence.

    Kaprizov is broken. Glad I haven’t pulled the trigger on his jersey.

    Evason bud… you might have to start answering for this early season embarrassment my man.

    They have completely checked out at this point. They look like a shell of that team that looked amazing 2 years ago.

    On a positive note we are closer to an Eiserman draft pick lol

    You have to wonder how many PP goals they’d have if Kap and Zucc acted like Ek exists. He’s wide open on the back door, and Kap and Zucc are just out there trying to play catch.

    PK was better, Gus was better, D was better. It’s a point at least.

    The fact they repaired Zucc and Kap and it looks like this should be a fireable offense. The special teams has been dogshit for years and now our top scorers can’t score.

    kaprizov is not the move in the shootout. :((
    gaudreau, boldy, ek, are

21. Primary-Pie-3315 10 mois ago

    Kap and zuccy shouldn’t be on the ice together at this point period.

    Tomorrow’s going to be brutal… and if you’re not in a playoff spot by Thanksgiving it’s a tank year.

23. Apanic_Attacka 10 mois ago

    This team has stayed afloat during the buyout years because of solid D and a superstar player, we have neither of those this year and it’s showing

24. _nordstar_ 10 mois ago

    Kap needs to shoot the puck, we need more finishing in general.

25. rubbercat 10 mois ago

    A whopping *one* shot on goal for Kaprizov. Yikes.

    15 mil in dead cap space+15 mil for two dead « offensive tallents ». Fire fucking everyone and rebuild around whoever is left in that mythical.prospect pool. Ofense is non existant, the only player who actualy made a fuss was effing veteran defender Bogosian.

    Kaprizov was tied for 79th in the league for goals, and tied for 50th for points going into this game. $9M and the letter “A”. Zero shots tonight.

    On the plus side Rossi got a much deserved goal, Faber got a much deserved assist, and Brodin + Gus had terrific games. On the negative side pretty much everything else.

    Zucc and Kaprizov together is becoming a big problem. Their obsession with getting the puck to each other is costing the Wild both in turnovers and passing up on other better quality options. The Wild had the Sens scrambling during a PP, Zucc had the puck with Ek wide open on the back door and an open passing lane. No one within 10 feet as the one down low defender was on the near side with Boldy and the other 3 defenders were too high in the zone trying to get back. Zucc instead of playing the easy high danger pass elects to try to force a puck through 2 defenders (it did not make it) to Kaprizov who would have had at best a 25 foot shot with a defender blocking him.

    I can’t even be mad at this game. They played defense and Gus finally looked in the groove. Now if the scoring just picked up….
