    The Wild seem mentally soft. Once we lost game 4 I knew this was going to be 6 game series like last year. Conceding game two seems even more idiotic by playing flower. It's the dead cap, its the lack of leadership from Kirill, and it's bad coaching by Dean. We're good enough to give hope, but not enough to win a series.

      I lay responsibility firstly on Dean! His pissant whining is tacit approval of Foligno's behavior! Foligno is not being a real leader, he has everyone out there in search of a hit, not in search of getting control of the puck!!! This in search of a check plays right into Dallas' hand. It takes one player out to be down 1 trying to get the puck! Check to dislodge the puck and then beat them to the others!!! Foligno called down the thunder with his Gladiator act! It pisses off the referees! They were just waiting for a way to eject Foligno and then you don't have to deal with his attitude. Keep your mouth shut and keep the game on the ice!

    As a Stars fan I see the Wild shooting themselves in the foot over and over in the series. The Wild have have made themselves public enemy #1 with the refs yet continue to go out there and play undisciplined. I don't think Evason or Faligno are doing the Wild any favors in that regard. I think the Wild were the better team in game 4 and Otter just stole it. Game 5, Dallas plays better but the Wild just looked deflated after Faligno goes out. I expect to see a much closer game back in MIN but if the Wild continue to play undisciplined they will lose this series.

    If Evanson starts Fleury and loses he shouldn't have a job come next season. I say that even as a Stars fan who would love to see Fleury go again. I personally would have even started him for game 2 with just how well Gus has been playing. I could see some small line changes for game 6. Maybe try Kaprizov and Boldy together for a few shifts to see if it gives them more opportunity and space. I do agree with not tinkering too much though at this point and just having a little faith in what got you here. This series is rough for me as I am a diehard Stars fan growing up here but have always had a love for the Wild as well after playing juniors up there in the early times shortly after the start of the franchise. It really has been about which team forces the other to play their style every game and I feel game 6 will be no different. Without Fleury just being completely off in Game 2 I feel this could be a very different conversation. Also, yes refs have been awful but both the Dumba hit and the Foligno hit were called correctly. I don't really see the refs, as bad as they have been, being that much of a game-changer. For every bad call they have made they have had a bad missed called in each direction. The difference here is simply the 6 ranked team in most penalties is playing the 6th ranked team in least penalties. It's the Wild's style, get back to killing penalties even at a mildly decent rate and the series could turn. Sorry for the long post and have enjoyed the content.

    It was Dean's job to get his team back on track mentally after the first goal and of course he did nothing because he left it to players "that are saying the right things" while they do all the wrong things. He spent the whole game crying like a baby to the refs and not doing anything to get his team going.

    • @HotDishSports
      @HotDishSports  Год назад

      Yes, I think losing Foligno had even more of an impact on the team than just being down a man. He is a leadership voice that was missing on the bench. But I disagree, he did amp up the team after that first goal because they found away to kill of the rest of the 5 min major after the goal 8 seconds in to it. Could have been worse. But a loss is a loss no matter the score, and it is time to step up or call it a year. Hopefully we get to a game 7.

    Giving you a subscribe because you’re objective and insightful. Here’s my take as a day one Stars fan:
    Wild have been threading the needle on late hits.
    Dumba’s shoulder caught Pavelski under the chin. It should have been an ejection.
    There have been several missed calls both ways. I wish the refs weren’t a factor.
    Wild got some very fortunate bounces in game three.
    Seguin came alive after the Foligno ejection.
    Y’all live and die by the forecheck.
    Foligno shouldn’t be flapping his gums about the refs and try to cheap shot the following night. At least Reaves will bang someone that sees it coming.
