It shouldn’t have been called in the first place, but if Hartman hadn’t taken that stupid penalty, we’d be in OT right now.
It also goes without saying that once again this game was completely blown by these dog shit refs, so many missed calls once again
Refs
We’re looking like early season again and so far, everyone around us is winning while we’re dropping games against teams like Florida who have no fucking right to hang 5 on us. Dean needs to stop having this shit repeat every god damn January.
Blind squirrels would have done a better job than the refs
ETA: I don’t want to be that fan who always blames the refs but this was another egregious example of zebra fuckery
I’m still pissed about that bullshit non high sticking call, a follow through has to be on a shooting motion, how do you have a shooting motion on a pass from behind your opponents net. It was far from the only reason we lost (looking at you Hartman) but it’s frustrating none the less.
I only really watched the third period, but that was the most rattled Gus has looked since the beginning of the season. I’m also glad I didn’t watch the whole game because the only thing worse than watching the Wild play poorly and lose is having to listen to Lou Nanne ramble on about nothing the whole game.
People really gonna complain about the refs when the Wild can’t complete a pass to save their lives. They had plenty of opportunities but couldn’t keep it on their sticks long enough to do anything.
I ❤️ refs! /s
Complain about the refs all you want but scoring 0 5v5 goals against that horrible defense and 3rd string goalie is inexcusable
Reavo needs to start knocking some heads around!
Stop taking penalties and get better in the offensive zone especially
we got outgoalied and outreffed. Impossible to win under these circumstances. Yes Hartman gave the refs the excuse to gift the Panthers a pp, but that’s not the whole story. I don’t think that the 4th goal should have counted, due to high stick on Addison (it’s dumb to consider that a wrist pass in front of the net maybe 3m away can have a follow through like a hardest shot competition slapshot). Also we allowed a goal in the last minutes of play during each period, this is bad, a period ends when the horn sounds, not before, the fact that there’s one minute left is not an excuse to go to the locker room and regroup.
Shitty passing, soft af defense, inability to put pucks on net without it being the most tepid attempt, letting every team walk right across our blue line while we dump every entry on theirs and making god damn ahl goalies look like brick walls.
Experience Wild Hockey
You win some you lose some.
Need a much better line around Boldy. Put Hartman on the 4th, kick Shaw back down. Why did we pick up Reaves and he’s barely in any scrums? Every time he’s on the ice there should be a scrum.
We want Walker.
Eriksson Ek is still such a fuckin beauty
It’s time to talk about Reaves. He was today on a line with a couple kids who he’s got 50 pounds on and was by far the least physical. Not saying he should never play again but when Moose comes back Shaw should stay in the lineup
Multiple things went wrong tonight. For example, not playing all that well AND getting reffed (as usual)- both things can be true at the same time. I would say I want our guys to get more physical, but then I think to myself “We’re just gonna get penalized for it somehow.” Tonight, Gudis(sp?) chopped KK’s legs- nothing called. Ekker gets straight up assaulted every game- nothing called. I could go on, but I’m tired and having a hard time staying excited. Not because of our team, I effing LOVE our guys, but this league…
Rude of them to lose when i was there behind enemy lines. Man what a terribly officiated game. From both sides tho tbf
[Recap: MIN @ FLA](https://hlslive-wsczoominwestus.med.nhl.com/publish/8936277/14403816/edbb8815-53e5-4b08-af37-e94c024f96c7.mp4)
Give it to the Kid from MN in FL net! His second start, and against his home town team‽ He stood tall! And yes Reavo needs to drop Smith within the first 30 seconds when the Kittens come to town!!!!
we all know that this team is up-and-coming. its just so tiring watching them get fucked by the refs while theyre already playing poorly. just wanting the opponents to get called for shit we get called for.
When did reavo get so soft? He can’t do anything on the ice except enforce, yet all I see are our players taking shots with no retaliation from him. I guess he thinks his chirps are good enough?? Such a waste of space and gtfo with the locker room booster shit. Do something on ice or non of that shit matters.
Reaves should get benched. He had a chance to send a message to Gudas for messing with Kaprizov and put the Panthers at 3 defenders for 5 minutes. Yeah maybe Gudas wouldn’t accept a fight in that scenario but Reaves has to at least try IMO.
Enough is enough. I’m done with all the heartbreak and no action.
We need to find the right hockey moves and take them downtown with picket signs and mega phones. They can’t ignore all of us…
Feels like our first few games again. Super disappointing.
