St. Louis Blues |
|
Nolan - Koivu - Bouchard Reitz - Schultz Harding |
Tkachuk - Stastny - Boyes Jackman - Polak Mason |
NOTES:
- Mikko Koivu has the Wild’s only goals in 148:12, dating back to defenseman Erik Reitz’s third-period goal Nov. 15 vs. Columbus.
- Koivu is the lone Wild forward to be credited with a goal in 172:24, dating back to Benoit Pouliot’s first-period PPG Nov. 15.
- The Wild skated, skated, skated on Friday, hopefully to get the lazy out of them.
Questions to Answer
- Anyone other than MIkko Koivu feel like playing offense??
- Will Owen Nolan and/or Andrew Brunette come out to play?
- Is it time to give Backstrom the night off?
- Should Burns really stay up front?
- How on earth will the Blues even field a complete team?

This is pathetic
Once again, facing a backup goalie, they don’t give the viewing audience any hope that they’re actually going to pressure the defense and take over the game.
