A good game that ended with an empty netter. Though Nash's line got throttled with a -4 couldn't match up to the skill of the Wild's top line. Grant I wouldn't be too worried about the shots in this one as we seem to always outshoot
opponents. Wonder how things would have ended up playing Miller slightly tired. Last time I did that after a SO he gave up 7 goals so I shyed away from it and put Clemmensen in.
good to see that my backup can win - good game by Neuvirth, his second solid game in a row. The Hagelin-Johnson-Read was also really good ... St Louis-Lecavalier-Grabner are yet to find their rhythm, it seems.
Gaborik who had a slow start to the season has taken off and now sits third in scoring. Horton with his first as a wing and Michalek with three in this game is humming along at a point per game pace.
