Jest coach is a complete POS, which makes him a perfect fit for the team

Without looking at the scoresheet.... Justin St. Pierre and Jean Hebert?
Whoa.....50%. Herbert was one and something called Trevor Hanson was the other.

I am actually slightly surprised it wasn't Justin St. Pierre. He is one of the least liked officials in the league, by players, coaches, and fans. I am really surprised he still works for the NHL honestly. If he had one more color on his flag, I can guarantee he would not be employed by the NHL.
The French Canadians in general seem to have more off-games and WTF calls than the others, St. Pierre being the worst (and I am not the only one with that opinion)
The Wild will be done after the 1st round of the playoffs both Colorado and the hated Stars are better
Colorado is better than everyone, if they're healthy. A series with Dallas would probably come down to goaltending. If they stick with Fleury, I don't see them having much of a chance
It's the playoffs, anything can happen. The Wild could flame out in four, but they could also win a few rounds - especially that post All-Star team that ran them right back into contention to potentially win the division.
On paper, nobody is going to stop Colorado. Stranger things have happened, though.
Fleury was not good at all last night, in my opinion. His attempt to stop the pass out front on the third goal was comical.
This game is an example of why there is still fighting in the NHL. Evanson got tired of the cheap shots, many of which were uncalled. The interference call against Hartmann was legit, but the added two minutes for roughing was a complete joke. That was a case of a ref who just wanted to add another penalty when no infraction was committed. That is not in the rulebook!

Oilers might be able to stop Avs in West. Gusto getting HOT is Wilds only chance to win a round in playoffs. Wild are a team built for regular season moderate success, not playoff success when the physically ramps up significantly. Got a chance vs Dallas, but little to no chance vs Avs.

couldn't disagree more about the call on Hartman. The guy with the puck is allowed to throw a check

He had just gotten rid of the puck. I guess the minutia of the rulebook can be argued but the ref's interpretation was that a check in that case was not allowed.

If it was Hartman watching his pass and not paying attention and Ehlers throws that same hit on Hartman, do you think Ehlers gets an interference penalty? I really don't believe that the NHL would consider that interference.

Well, the on-ice official made the call, and it was validated by the suspension. I'm not sure what the argument is about. The call was made and the situation was reviewed. There's no Supreme Court of refereeing, and fans don't get a vote anyway.
Now, if you want to really get me worked up, just try and tell me that call against Cooley with 5 frickin minutes left in the season was reasonable!
I'm fine with Guerin and don't disagree with the idea this team could beat last year's team. I like our core / nucleus of players and love we have Boldy under contract and seemed to have found a goalie in Gus. We weren't going to keep everyone and while having Fiala would be nice, I'm not devastated about the situation.
I think the Wild are as in as good of a position as they have been in the past decade. Maybe not as exciting as when Parise and Suter were first announced, but see where that got us.
My yearly complaint about late start times in the playoffs is due. I know it will never change but hopefully some year the Wild can make it deep enough where the start times are normal. It will likely be one period games for me. Thanks NHL.

If you want normal start times in the playoffs…your only true solution is to move either to the east coast or west coast ?
So you need to subscribe to Bally's, TNT and ESPN to watch all of the NHL playoffs? Three different streamers? No thanks.
If you have cable, you get ESPN, TNT & TBS. Or if you don’t have cable, I believe you can get the Wild games paying for Bally’s streaming. If neither works, you can always watch at a bar. ?
I think Gustavsson will have to outplay Oettinger by quite a bit for the Wild to win the series. Would also help a lot if Spurgeon and/or Brodin could show up for a playoff series at some point.
