If anyone's interested in going to tonight's game, I can't make it.  2 tickets in section 324 can be had for well below face value.

Prediction:
4-3 loss with a decent effort from Helle, but horrible performance from the team and a late 3rd period goal by us that doesn't really mean anything.

I heard a Blake Wheeler quote this morning. Really good if you can find it. Sounds like the Jets will try really hard tonight.

There fore Wild blowout.

Dub vs Pav confirmed. Talk about kicking a horse when he's down.

Wow, my prediction was wrong 7 hours before game time. A new record!

Helle should be playing... why? 

Just checked how we have done against The Wild this season.

3 games played, 1 win 2 losses.

Hutch in net for a 4 -3 loss.

Helle in net for a 4 -1 win and a 3 - 1 loss (final goal into empty net).

Helle saved 50 out of 53 shots against the Wild for a save percentage of .943

Going back a year Helle started his NHL career with a win over the Wild, yielding just 1 goal in 15 shots. He faced the Wild one more time last year and had a 24 save shutout. Career against the Wild, Helle has posted a save percentage of .957.

 

But yup... Pavelec.

When pavelec starts Maurice says things like his career numbers are good against that team... explain this one Paul

He's going with his gut.  It hasn't failed us thus far, right?

Now Lawless is on H&L saying that our terrible D zone coverage and lack of consequences for players is not on Maurice.... get ready...  its a 'calculated organizational move' to develop our young scorers.

...

Honestly, I've gotten to the point where I'd rather hear Maurice less rather than more.

His penchant for non-speak, from the school of Chevy, is downright irritating and insulting.  I think it's one thing to sound distinguished when answering another person's failures (when he took over from Noel) vs. when those failure's become your own. 

This is his team now, and we're pretty bad.  And I'm not hearing much in the way of solutions. Actually, one better: I'm not hearing much in the way of there being a problem. Literally just now chatting with a coworker and we're talking about how virtually no one in this organization is visibly upset when they lose.  

 

Maurice's time working with TSN has made him a smooth-talker and he knows how to woo the media.

Unfortunately just not a very good coach.

Speaking of smooth ... this one is particularly moving ...

He did?

or the wild doesn't have good aim I don't know it may have been a goal post thing

BIG rebounds by Pavs.

Zucker ripped it over the net.

just now or when Pav made that save

Could have used a 'timely save' there
