Wild vs. Blackhawks, The Ugly: The no call on the wicked slash late in the game after the play. After a few days off there is no way they should've been as sluggish as they were through the first two periods of the game. Somehow we skate away with 2 points. #mnwild

Wild vs. Blackhawks, The Bad: Minnesota was thoroughly outplayed and outworked in the 1st & 2nd periods. Only Gustavsson kept the game close enough for this team to scratch and claw their way back in it. 4th line was horrible; especially Tyler Pitlick. #mnwild

Wild vs. Blackhawks, The Good: It's not how you start, but how you finish and the #mnwild raised their play in the 3rd to force it to overtime. Great execution in the overtime even if they got a gift of a call. Gustavsson deserves credit for the theft of this game.

Wild win! Kaprizov rips a wrist shot off the post and in on the 4-on-3 power play in overtime. Eriksson Ek with the screen. 4-3 overtime victory! Gustavsson with 33 saves in the win. Faber, Sturm and Boldy with the other #mnwild goals.

Wild goal! Matt Boldy slams home the puck on an empty net after a nice flurry near the Chicago crease. All tied at 3-3 with 9:25 left in the 3rd. #mnwild

Wild goal! Brock Faber's shot from the point seems to weave its way through a few bodies and Spencer Knight could only wave at the fluttering puck as Minnesota cuts Chicago's lead to one, 2-1 with 13.6 seconds left in the 2nd. #mnwild

No goal as Bertuzzi was offsides. United Center crowd not happy, but will the Wild wake up or will they still sleepwalk through another period of hockey as they trail 2-0 to Chicago? #mnwild

Blackhawks goal. Bedard gets a step on Jake Middleton, fires a shot off the pads of Gustavsson and Bertuzzi pounces on the rebound. Wild challenging the zone entry. Maybe 3-0 or still 2-0. #mnwild

Blackhawks goal. Bedard with the tap in goal off the rush after a great set up by Chaska, MN-native Sam Rinzel and Tyler Bertuzzi. Tic-tac-toe. 2-0 Chicago with 7:43 left in the 2nd. #mnwild

Blackhawks goal. Jason Dickinson pounces on the puck after an odd carom off the boards that beats Gustavsson 5-hole, 1-0 with 14:15 left in the 2nd. Minnesota continues to chase the puck all over the ice. #mnwild

Wild and Blackhawks knotted at 0-0 in Chicago. It’s been the Filip Gustavsson show, stopping 21 shots in the opening stanza of the game. #mnwild

I know I said before that this 'plan' sounds similar to the appeasement reached with Hitler in 1938, it's actually much worse but hardly a surprise when POTUS uses Russia-GPT version of a 'peace plan' @justin-br0nk.bsky.social & @wardcarroll.bsky.social insight is fair & well done. Give it a watch.

Wild vs. Jets, Also Good: Danila Yurov's progress / development continues to be steady. He seems to be a little better each shift. Making plays offensively and defensively and justifying the trust the team is showing him right now. #mnwild
