[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Crazy Giraffe at it again

And Miro gets it back!

Theres a long list of pathetic Minnesota sports moments

But if the Wild lose this series(they will) this might just top em all. Its men against boys 5 on 5 where Dallas only prayer is taking dives to draw penalties

But I've never seen such a special teams disparity. Hopefully now that Zuccarello is back at least the Minny PP will be better. But my god they cant stop the Dallas PP

One power play goal aside, the Wild have been the better team for the last 45 minutes of hockey in this series. That needs to change real quick.

It didn’t

6 SOG for the game in 5-on-5

And Otter keeps it from being 2 goal lead after 2.

Make it 86 and counting

Its been the entire series when 5 on 5

Lucky for Dallas the refs will continue to cater to Jamie Benn and make shit up to give hope

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Dallas hasn’t scored a 5 v 5 goal in 207:53

That’s insane.

Even more insane that they are still very alive in the series

Man, don't make me choose between Jamie Benn and Ryan Hartman for who is more greasy...

That'll teach him...

Dallas WAGs are clones

As an annual customer at the AAC I can attest that there are a number of brunettes and one particularly smoking hot red head among the Ice Girls.

I made the mistake of reading the comments - Man, some people are cruel.

Chaos Giraffe is a healthy scratch tonight.

Chaos Giraffe is a healthy scratch tonight.

Petrovic in. He’s been on the playoff roster the past couple of seasons, played meaningful minutes and hasn’t embarrassed himself. A clear upgrade.

Bunting in as well. Considering he was traded for prior to the deadline (not to mention the well documented 5-on-5 deficiencies this team has had), many of us down here have been “curious” why he hasn’t been inserted sooner.

Wild move on tonight

Wild move on tonight

Minnesota teams lay eggs in the playoffs - it’s what they do.
