Not every team has been playing as well as the Wild have, though. There will be games to get the top D only 22-23 minutes, with the win in hand.

We'll have to see what adjustments Minnesota makes at the end of the month when they have last change. Something tells me though that 1/28 matchup will be decidedly more Sabres. Like 4-1.

I'm not sure how many there were. Some frustration blowing 4-2, but if any team can tie a game late... it's this Sabres squad.

He was getting dangerously close to only 1 point per game. That was something he had to remedy.

Gimme gimme gimme!

Fleury was fantastic twice. Great backcheck and effort by Mitts, game-saver by UPL. And... all y'all keep complaining that all Olofsson does is score (empty net and PP) goals. He scores goals. Period.

Tuch with the judo takedown. No call is fine.

That's a goal your goalie is going to want to have back.... it's a shame really. RASMUS!

As good as the 1st was for possession, they've let Minnesota dictate the game since, even with a 3-goal second. Get back on the attack, because the Wild are just going clog everything and lob and ice it from here on out.

Essentially a double minor. Dang it. But still plenty of time. They do need to wake up a bit... they relaxed once they took the 4-2 lead and you can't do that.

Yup. No bother with the Alamo Death Star Mode. Tie game means the Sabres can cut loose and go for 4 more.

Gah. The late goal at the end of the 2nd, the early goal at the beginning of the 3rd. Bloody hell.

Hits are 17-2? Did the Wild bring their own statistician while the Sabres kept their usual person?

And... by his standards... Eichel is having a phenomenal year.

He's a perfectly good actor. Sideways didn't do it for me, though he was good. I just don't like his Einstein. Or... maybe it's just that it's the only commercial ESPN+ shows.

I just don't believe in this guy playing Einstein in the Verizon commercial on Hulu/ESPN+. There's got to be a better Einstein out there.

Just remember everyone: if you're drunk, just close your eyes while you type. Your muscle memory can't be fooled and the words will likely be much more coherent. Dang it. Bad way to end the second.

Great shot by Tage, right to the glove. Sure.. sure... I see we already scored and you're all yelling Cozens. Big deal. COZENS!

No. No ripping. Just roughing.

To the power play! Waiting on a commercial... did Kaprizov rip Dahlin's bucket off?

Oh... Wild... you thought you had a lead?

Great dodge by Krebs to not killed by Foligno. DAHLIN!!!!!

Fleury with absolutely no chance. The target area is only two meters wide... but Tage has been bulls-eyeing womp rats and they're not much bigger than two meters.

We're on a powerplay? Hulu has totally let me down. I'm still saying: Time to wake up, gents! The second period has not been anything like the first. Go get after it.
