It would be an understatement if I told you last nights game was an ugly game. The Minnesota Wild were down 3-0 to the Av's before the first period was over. From that point on the game took a turn for the worse as the Wild started a parade to the penalty box. Not all is lost as the Wild accomplished their goal by splitting in Colorado.
I give Stephane Veilleux a lot of credit for stepping in and fighting Av's thug Ian Laperriere. Face it Laperriere is a hack, he skates all over the ice taking runs at the skilled players of the Wild but he wants nothing to do with the Wild tough guys Derick Boogaard, Aaron Voros or Todd Fedoruk.
That being said the Wild need to beat the Av's on the score board and pick their spots to get their pay back against the Av's, no stupid selfish penalties.
This is pretty accurate photo of Peter Forsberg.
Veilleux's hit on Stastny was way worse than anything Laperrier did to any of the wild players. He deserves to be suspended. All the Wild did in the 3rd was take runs at the Avalanche players.
ReplyDeleteThe wild and gophers have something in common, NO CLASS.
Ha, ha, ha... No argument there because I am a Sioux fan, however, the Slappy is great for running the smaller talented Wild forwards and wants nothing to do with Voros, the Fridge, Simon or Boogey.
