Markstrom is really good in Minnesota. He held the fort when Minnesota made a really strong push.
Greer was pretty noticeable tonight I thought and Huberdeau's finish on that goal was impressive. Nice passes by Sharangovich and Lindholm on that one too.
I'm really happy they put Mangiapane back with Backlund and Coleman. Huberdeau looked decent on 28 and 17 tonight but that 88-11-20 is too effective to keep apart.
Seems like Zary has cooled off a bit but he is still holding onto pucks and making plays so he'll find his way back I think.
Tanev and Hanifin were good and I think I like Gilbert the most when he's playing with Andersson.

Greer is flames modern version of Sean Donovan. Speed and forechecking. So many chances. Hands of stone for majority.
That was Jarnkrok.
Greer actually has 6G on the 4th line this season! That's twice as many as Dube and Ruzicka, 1 less than Mangiapane, 2 less than Lindholm, and 1 more than Huberdeau.

I find the GWG stat weird. At the time, Huberdeau's goal was actually a bit of insurance...but it counts as a GWG because Minny scored.
GWGs should be reserved for goals that break a tie, and the other team doesn't score again. Really happy for Huby and the win, but I will die on this hill.

I’ve always thought GWGs being automatically counted as clutch goals is a bit OTT. It’s all situational. Scoring the first goal in a game may be more important.

More than Tkachuk too

We might have more AHL points than NHL points in our lineup tonight
Quote:
Seems like every week a new terrible thing happens to this team.. what’s next? Parise comes out of retirement and signs a new deal with the Wild?
Quote:
I mean at this point we could use him. We got an AHLer playing on each of the bottom 3 lines tonight lol
Quote:
If Rossi gets a hatty, I’ll buy a Dany Heatley Wild jersey.
Quote:
Which Wild player ends up on LTIR after today? Spin the wheel and find out at 7:00 pm central.
Quote:
All I want is a healthy roster is that so much to ask
Quote:
Good think Iowa doesn't play any weeknight games this week or else I think one of us would have to skate on the 4th line for them
Quote:
Russo/Smith seemed to imply Zuccarello wouldn't be playing, and if Foligno isn't going, they'll go 11/7
Quote:
Foligno’s a game time decision with a lingering injury.
Quote:
Moose officially ruled out per the team
Quote:
Moose is out tonight.
LOL. Doom!
Quote:
This sucks to watch. Half our team is out.
Quote:
Lol holy #### is this a tank line up. I mean i know its circumstance but petan, luccini, walker, and mermis. Plus goose, whos pretty washed and bogo who theyve been fortunate to get good play out of but is pretty limited in his skill set
Quote:
I always wanted to catch an Iowa Wild game. Awesome that they're doing a barnstorming tour and are visiting St. Paul.
Quote:
Tonight's game, the Iowa Wild vs Calgary Flames
Rat King
Quote:
I fully expect every other team to blatantly #### with Hartman now, refs won't call it, and Hartman will end up putting himself in the box constantly.
Quote:
So bog standard for how it seems ref call when officiating the Wild
Quote:
That's pretty much what they do already. Hartman is a repeat offender, it's open season on him and he honestly brings it on himself.
Quote:
Is Hartmain mic’d up tonight? Asking for a friend.
Mangione with a Tip
Quote:
I forgot the Flames have that guy from King of the Hill on their team.
Quote:
Chuck Mangione on ice
Quote:
Chuck Mangione?
Quote:
Jesus ####.. that was the most wild deflection I’ve ever seen.. literally no one could have stopped that
Quote:
Nasty deflection.
Quote:
Can never be mad at a goalie for letting a well tipped shot through.
Quote:
God I hope Huberdough doesn’t get a point against us
Huberdeau’s Back-Monkey
Quote:
Yeesh
Quote:
This is depressing to watch
Quote:
I would love if we didn't go a goal down and immediately implode
Quote:
Yikes, this got ugly quickly
Quote:
Ouch, Huberdeau hasn’t scored since like… November, right?
Quote:
Jesus, just #### turnovers with an already decimated team is not gonna work.
Quote:
I don't wanna #### on anything but getting scored on by Huberdeau this season might be a clear tell tale that tonight it's just not a good hockey night.
Quote:
A guy asked why Wild fans don't usually comment in the main GDTs and then called me whiny when I said "well we get insulted a lot".
####ing proving my point.
Quote:
Goose. I understand you losing some physical ability to play the position at an older age, but you are not old enough to be getting too dumb to play the position. I truly do not understand your decision making most of the time.
Dome Lights
Quote:
Hynes extra shiny up top. Buffed that out tonight.
Quote:
He got a new Turtle Wax set for Christmas.
Quote:
Does he buff it by hand, or does he use power tools?
Quote:
Only way you can get that clean a gleam is hand buffing.
Quote:
Dude lays down on the shoe shiner’s box to get a proper buff.
Vintage Markstrom
Quote:
Think the extra move needed to pass was just too much time for the goalie to slide. Unfortunate
Quote:
Why do we make every ####ing goalie look all world?
Quote:
Just robbed my Msrkstrom
Quote:
####, what a good chance
Quote:
Let Flower fight the Flames goalie
Quote:
Just lob on down to Markstrom. He’s likely to fumble it
Quote:
WOW. They really just think attacking us at their net is ok?
Quote:
Don't like that someone is in front of your goalie? Just jump on top of him and push everyone into the net!
Quote:
I’m just waiting for a full battle royale with more fights than the refs can contain
Quote:
Tired of seeing our guys get malled around the net with no call.
Goalman Chimes in Again!

See you next time folks
Quote:
Coleman is a dirty hooker
Quote:
That women yawning while that kid eats pizza tells you all you need to know about this season
Quote:
Fleury: Not just no, but hell no
Quote:
We’re ####ed.. neither team is playing well but we are just discombobulated and definitely not playing like we want it..
Quote:
That was a bore. Good night, folks
Quote:
January is gonna be a bit bumpy.
Quote:
Was that supposed to be an end of game push? Wtf, dudes look like they’re skating in molasses
Quote:
You have an empty net and an extra player and you... Dump the puck and send no one to challenge it... Shocking they got a goal
Quote:
That was not a very good game
