    .......of course, Stoll is in the line up against the Rangers.

    Wild are on fire of late. Can Rangers cool them off?

    Go Rangers!

    This team is about as exciting as watching a deer tick crawl on a horse.

    The wild does not exactly play exciting game either. They remind me of early 2000 devils.

    Watching Glass play is like watching a ten year old pewee hockey player just trying to keep up with everyone else.

    As soon as I saw Glass on PK, I knew the wild will score. AV is such buffoon. I hope he is gone after this season.

    He's gone to the Stanley Cup Finals and Eastern Conference Finals in his two years. Yup, lets dump him for a mystery man to be named later.

    Has he won a cup? Coaches like him have a two year shelf life at most. You can clearly see it this year.

    Yup, clearly a two year shelf life. We should just give up now and sell off the entire team while we're at it.

    Hank has to stop that one. Kills any chance now.

    Just watch this team fall to the middle of the pack as his tenure continues.

    Based on what? His teams finished first six out of seven years in Vancouver and the Rangers were first last year. I can understand being upset at how they're playing at the moment but what you're trying to sell about two years is absolute nonsense.

    Too many declining duds on defense and middling forwards with not alot of offensive skill.

    If guys like Miller, Hayes and Kreider aren't going to step up you can just forget it.

    They said Stepan might come back tomorrow. Hopefully it will give them some boost and make the lineup more balanced.

    Don't worry,our GM Glen, ugh hum, Scott Gorton will look to deal from the D strength we have built up ! Ole Glen is mentoring Gorton on how to tweak the roster and fill needs as he has so effectively done! Just remember, we cant deal any home grown guys cause it will make the boss look bad. The old f'n goat just gets pass after pass...going on 16 years !

    I'm not sure what can really be done right now. Getting Stepan and Klein back will help some but i don't see the glaring defensive breakdowns and general lack of offense improving suddenly.

    Stepan would definitely help the offense if he moved to wing and let someone else take face offs but Derek's a very consistent offensive player, they need him back. Every Wild goal came within 15 feet of the net - not much Hank could do tonight. The Rangers habit of carrying or passing the puck back into their own zone to start a rush has been biting them in the ass lately. Replacing Staal/Girardi with Skjei/McIlrath would free up $9 mil in cap but thanks to the NTC it could never happen. As useless as Glass is, Etem may be even more useless.
