Wild vs Flyers, The Ugly: Eriksson Ek, who takes more abuse than any #mnwild player takes a stick right to the mouth. Thankfully he would return and still played his fearless self, even standing up for Kaprizov when Hathaway tried to take liberties. Winless on road trip so far.

Wild vs Flyers, The Bad: Another loss in a game the Wild should have won is a big missed opportunity. Turnovers continue to dog Wild defenseman. Hartman back to his foolish penalty, ineffective ways. #mnwild

Wild vs Flyers, The Good: Jesper Wallstedt played pretty well and kept Minnesota in the game when it may not have deserved to be. Tarasenko finally nets one, again at even strength. Buium’s zone entries have shown improvement. #mnwild

Flyers win. Stillwater’s Jackson Cates rips a shot by Wallstedt a minute or so after Eriksson Ek rang one off the post. Wild fall 2-1 in overtime. Tarasenko with the lone Wild goal. #mnwild

Does the Marian Gaborik bobble head have a glass groin? #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 5h

Wild hold a 1-0 lead over the Flyers. Vladimir Tarasenko’s goal is the difference thus far but the Flyers will have nearly a two-minute power play to start the 3rd. #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 5h

Wild fall 4-1 to Charlotte who complete the 2-game series sweep. Ohgren with the only Iowa goal. Hlavaj with 27 saves in the loss. #IAWild #mnwild Iowa is 0-4 on the season.

Charlotte goal. Marek Alscher extends the Checkers' lead to three, 4-1 and that will probably be the final in Charlotte and Iowa will fall to 0-4 on the season. #IAWild #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 5h

Iowa Wild still trail Charlotte 3-1 late in the 3rd period, 2:52 left. #IAWild #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 5h

Wild & Tarasenko's goal stands...now the #mnwild will have a power play because of the Flyers' failed challenge. 1-0 with 18:05 left in the 2nd.

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 5h

Wild goal! Vladimir Tarasenko rips a one timer by Vladar to give the #mnwild a 1-0 lead! Even strength tally! Top cheese! Now being challenged by Philadelphia...(sigh)

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 6h

Iowa Wild trails Charlotte 3-1 after two. Ohgren with the only Wild goal. Shots 22-10. #IAWild #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 6h

Wild and Philadelphia knotted at 0-0 after one. A bit chippy, a bit dirty but Wallstedt has been good. #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 6h

Charlotte goal. Tyler Motte snipes one by Hlavaj who immediately went to the official thinking the goal shouldn't count, too bad it does...so its 3-1 with 4:33 left in the 2nd period. Power play goal. #IAWild #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 6h

Charlotte goal. Nolan Foote scores to give the Checkers a 2-1 lead with 10:37 left in the 2nd period. #IAWild #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 6h

Well...someone look for the chiclets on the ice after that one. Ouch! #mnwild Poor Ek...

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 7h

Iowa and Charlotte are knotted at 0-0 after one. Liam Ohgren with he lone goal for the Iowa Wild. Samuel Hlavaj with 10 saves so far. #IAWild #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 7h

Iowa Wild goal! Liam Ohgren scores after a nice pass by Jean-Luc Foudy! 1-1 game with 13:07 left in the 1st period in Charlotte. #IAWild #mnwild

CreaseAndAssist @creaseandassist.bsky.social · 7h

Charlotte goal. The Checkers convert in a 2-on-1 that Samuel Hlavaj gets scored on, short side...by Ben Steeves. 1-0 early in the 1st period. #IAWild #mnwild

We've all been waiting...for 25 years. I think they have bigger issues than just needing a physical presence. They need 2nd line scoring...to say nothing of more even strength scoring in general.

Latest pickups from the local game store, I finally cracked the 500 mark!

(Shrugs). That’s always their move and they always overpay see Brazeau.

Can anyone in the military, especially those in leadership even afford to appear unenthusiastic about this administration? The tests and checks of their loyalty is probably constant. You think it will go as far as assigning a political officer the way the Soviets used to?
