Rossi for Calder
Remember to thank your local Flower guy.
Did anyone else feel their groin tear when watching fleury make that save
🫡 FLOWER
WHAT A FUN GAME.
FLEURY HAS MULTIPLE GROINS TO STRETCH
I AINT HEAR NO BELL
What happened to Gus man 🙁
Hell yeah the turning point in our season is NOW! Rossi, Kap, Flower the boys are back baby!
BOLDY
The Flower is in bloom.
Flower only makes saves when it matters. Prove me wrong.
I missed the first period but I really liked the new lines. Seemed like all of them were working but especially the 1st and 3rd.
Some of ya’ll in the GDT genuinely need to find a therapist. Embarrassing
That Fleury save made me blush
Flower was like nah
FLOWER BABYYYYYYYY 🌷🌸💐🪻🪷🌹🌼🌺🌷🌹🌸🌺🪷🌻💐🪻🌻🪷🌷🌸🌺🌹🌸🌹🌷🌺🪷🪻🌻💐
Our MVP was indisputably Jonathan Quick’s ass.
Excluding the first 7 minutes, the Wild absolutely dominated that game. Everyone stepping up. Boldy’s shootout goal lol. Fleury killed in the shootout too.
Flower get credit for the win?
GG y’all deserved that, wish I could be mad about the luck on boldy but if we’re being fair you probably should’ve scored long before then.
Turns out, we just need to stop taking penalties
#WE ARE SO BACK BABY 🌹🌹🌹
ALSO FUCK THE RAGS, QUICK CAN KISS ALL OUR ASSES
Marc Andre Fleury, Marco Rossi, Matt Boldy, Mats Zuccarello, Kirill Kaprizov, Brock Faber, Ryan Hartman, etc
The slow starts for this team are just flat out unacceptable. They need to have that down by two energy right from the jump.
Thankful for the washed up vet in net. When the bus breaks down, knowing there is HOF greatness ready to steal one is a huge confidence builder for this team.
After all that, it came down to Quick’s ass and Flower’s toe
if we can just play like that every time without going down 3 – 0 in the first place, i have no doubt that this team can really start cooking. it still remains to be seen if we can stop trying to give away W’s in the first period
Dean, this is why you pull the goalie when they have a bad start.
What a fucking rollercoaster of a game
Bolts fan coming in to say I adore Flower. Those saves he made in the SO were classic Flower saves and he’s so fun to watch when he’s on one.
Can’t believe we did it, and against a team like the Rangers. And here I was looking for a low-stress low-expectation season…
Also, as a Fleury hater, currently in shambles rn
For a man of Fleury’s age to stretch like that twice is awful impressive.
Rossi is playing with such confidence.
In honor of a vintage Fleury performance, I decided to send my mom some “just because” flowers.
I said this in the GDT but Maroon is such a nice surprise. IDK if he’s better this year than the past few, but he’s really brought more offensively than I expected. The fact he’s even been compared to Reaves is laughable. He’s more like a better, more physical Greenway.
