Minnesota is a real surprise team this season, at least for me. I was not anticipating the quality of play they have gotten in net, nor the abundance of depth scoring that takes pressure off the Kaprizov line.
Hockey is strange, but it is hard to see the Habs getting anything out of this game. The Wild can basically play however an opponent wants to play. So if Montreal opts for an open, free flowing game then I could see Minnesota out-skill the Habs; if Montreal slows it down and clogs the neutral zone, then the Wild go into heavy grind mode, which they are quite adept at.
I wonder if Price will be in net. Apparently, it is his choice which games he plays down the stretch.

I'd like to make an avoidable hit to Colin Campbell's head, except it would have no visible effect.

If the guy plays the very next shift on the powerplay, how does that warrant a 2 game suspension for a 1st offence... meanwhile saint chara never got suspended for anything other than a fight when he was with the Hens... all the headshots and crap after the whistle and the Ape gets nothing The nhl blows donkey coconuts

Joel Armia has taken a leave of absence and returned to Finland for the remainder of the season. Family reasons

Joel Armia has taken a leave of absence and returned to Finland for the remainder of the season. Family reasons I hope his family is ok … but the logos on goalies chests and the boards behind the net will be a lot cleaner the rest of the season

It's just as well they pass the puck to Youppi, than to pass the puck to Gallagher this year . You get the same result.

Poor Caufield... he passed the puck to everyone on that shift but Gallagher. He even looked Youppi's way .... Wideman however, muffed it all up

We never win these reviews. I predict they will call it no goal

You can drive into the goalie and it's a good goal but this isn't.. the nhl blows

They really should keep the stat on how many goals each team gets reviewed and how many are taken away .... I'll bet the farm the Habs lead in both categories

I understand they are playing everyone to see what they have but jeebus paquette, hoffman, armia, dvorak, wideman are less than useless... around 15 million in cap space doing nothing... f'n berg

Carey gave up on that one. Or reacted awful late once he realized the initial shot missed the net. That's regular season Carey

Stutzle was stopped on a breakaway and the puck was under Kallgren's pad. The guy following the play poked it in because the ref didn't blow the whistle. They reviewed it, called it back and Toronto wins in OT. Big surprise.

The decision on the no-goal made no real sense, neither in terms of the eye test (Dauphin did not force Gaudreau into the position that he found himself in) nor in terms of comparisons that we watch on nightly basis in NHL games. It makes me wonder if the people making these decisions in the Toronto war room ever bother to analyze frame by frame the decisions they make each week or month in order to ask themselves hey are we winging it (making things up) or actually adhering to some semi-structured rubric of what goalie interference entails?

Option 1 - winging it. They are all over the map and you can bet that it will come back to bite them in the butt during the playoffs.

What a pile of stinky boring hockey that was. Can you imagine paying to go see that crap? I don't know what they're going to do. MB tossed a grenade on his way out the door. Years ahead of horrible contracts and very little talent. I don't know who I'd buy out first. Hoffman? Gallagher? I think Caufield may be the only winger I'd keep out of all of them. No help on the near horizon

I keep emphasizing that the number of stupid (or crooked) people in the world far exceeds our estimates. The "Player Safety" group and the guys making decision on reviews fall squarely in that category. I see bunches of these reviews and it seems the commentators are always saying, "Well I guess it might be looked at that way, but....". The review people have no common sense at all. No one can understand the decision and that's because those guys are clearly the friend or relative of someone in Head Office and have no real skills, knowledge or ability to make good decisions. The time Price got hanged, quartered and drawn out of his crease and they called it a good goal is a perfect example. They simply call what they want, not what is real.
