some parts are boring, but ya gotta take the good games with the bad. anyway you can win is all that counts.

 

heres a flames goal from last night that wasn't allowed, but it clearly should have counted. that's what needs to change, not the shutouts.

After i started follow NHL i havent watch Soccer anymore, that if something is poor and make me crazy to see players crying how much they leg hurt and after couple min they are like nothing, when NHL players continue playing when they not should even walk. I know that if soccer fan watch couple game of hockey and learn rules 90% dont ever return to soccer.

The final 3 minutes of the Hawks game almost gave me a heart attack haha. If the Wild had played that way the entire series then we'd probably be seeing it go back to Chicago tied 2-2. Glad my Hawks won tho!

So we lost, no surprise if you saw games, we didnt play our hockey in that serie, we just was bad thats all, everyone who saw game 4 end saw that we have potential but we just didnt play our game, game 1 was great and i was waiting great serie so it is huge disappointment to me see how bad we played, ofcourse its easier to take lose like this than lose what come from game 7 overtime. Its have been our trademark in Yeo time, that we lose games row and we win games row, in every season of Wild we had our hot streaks and a long long cold streaks what almost kill us in last three season (in regular season). and now we got that cold streak in playoffs what kill us. Yeo again overplayed our goalie, you can for sure remember how i was criticising him on that several time in end of regular season, in season 2012-2013 Yeo overplayed Bäckström who injured in playoffs and we lost first serie because that, in 2013-2014 he overplayed Kuemper who injured and we lost second serie, in this season Yeo put Dubnyk in goal for 38 straight games where was several back to back games and what happened, Dubnyk was tired when second serie start and he allowed 1-2 easy goal in every single game and we lost serie.

 

We really need new coatch, like Bylsma or Babcock.

 

I say in my last post what Wild need for player side.

...I see always when soccer player dont have any hurts and cry on playing field.

 

yea, i played soccer for 8 years and it seems to get out of hand for international matches these days. every single time i see a soccer player go down and grab their shin/foot/leg i don't believe they're hurt at all. but it's now such a big part of their game to fake injuries, it has turned me off watching it completely.

My Dream Coach roster for next year

 

Coach Mike Babcock. Second choise Dan Bylsma

Ass. Coach Teppo Numminen (Defenders and penalty kills) Numminen was Ass coach in Buffalo Couple year, and his fathers is maybe most legend Finnish coach.

Ass. Coach Todd Mclellan (powerplay and offencive) best powerplay coach of NHL

Goalie coach Pasi Nurminen (Finnish goalie coach and former NHL goalie, i think he is most promising finnish coach at the moment, he is like Patrick Roy very passionate) or Bob Mason (longtime goalie coach of Wild, made good job with Fernandez, Roloson, Bäckström, Harding and Dubnyk)

GM: Jarmo Kekäläinen (he have Contract with Columbus so we will not get him) or Dale Tallon (he have Contract with FLA)

Ass. GM Antero Niittymäki (he chose GM road after he retire his career because injuries, he is my all time biggest idol ever and i still closely follow his career and now he is GM of TPS in Finland for sure he will be GM in NHL too someday)

 

I think Bobcock is best coach of NHL who you think is best coach and if you could be owner of NHL team who you would choose for coaching your team?

Babcock has to go to San Jose!!!

[von Rantala]

Babcock has to go to San Jose!!!

 

So you mean that you think too that he is best coach of NHL? I think San Jose need more new GM than new coach, McLellan was good coach. But your GM suck, havent got any big free agents lately, made bad trades, (like Heatley and Havlat trades) and made too big contracts to Thornton and Marleua, even that they are good players and it not they fault that team havent win cup they contracts are too big.

[L3ftY.]

don't forget, the leafs are in need of a real coach. babcock might be the one since shannie and babcock are related through the red wings organization and are friends. the pens have also backed away from asking him, but only teams with deep pockets will be able to afford him, making the leafs a good possibility.

Obviously San Jose needs a new GM...but it seems the GM is a good friend of the president I think...

And McLellan is a good coach and will find a job with a new team. No doubt there.

I have heard somewhere that Babcock wouldn't go to a team that is rebuilding. We'll see.

Edmonton can be in Conference finals in next season, at least back in playoffs now when they got new coach (Chiarelli) who can make trades what needed, EDM atleast need new goalie, Niemi could be going to there and McLellan in coaching that team, I think Jets probably try trade Pavelec or Huthincson when they have Hellebuyck.

 

biggest prospect from europe list! (playing in Euro leagues) only players who is playing in World Champion tournament add in this list, best KHL players later.

 

Juuse Saron 20 (G) FIN i think he is best goalie outside of NHL. (NSH has right to him)

 

Esa Lindell 20 (D) FIN i think best offencive defender from Finland after Vatanen and will take spot in next season in DAL line ups who have already most prospecting defender lineups.

 

Joonas Donskoi 23 (W) FIN talent offencive player

 

Artem Panarin 23 (LW) RUS talent player who will play in Chicago or Rocford in next season. Can be player what CHI need when they have to make room in salary cap

 

Mathis Olimb 29 © NOR even that he is almost 30 year, some team can get very good and solid second-third liner if they want sign older player, its very rare that player make his deput in NHL after 28 age, but we have seen from past that it is possible to make long and good NHL career after they come to NHL in older age, good examples Mark Streit, Niklas Bäckström (G) and Leo Komarov

 

Patrick Thoresen 31 (F)  NOR he has been one of best KHL players last 5 year and have played over 100 NHL game also, one of top 5 players from outside of NHL

 

Leoardo Genoni 27 (G) SUI he is best age of goalies, and Switzerland league products alot good goalies at the moment, even that only couple is played in NHL, i see that in 2-5 we start see a lot more SUI goalies in NHL and goalies from that League. I can be wrong too, but SUI league is very good league.
