Any hockey fans out there?

Nah, there's plenty to look forward to this year. If we stay healthy we can make post season. Then next year the fun begins when we gain $14m in buyout cap space

Those contracts are still killing them.

Another disappointing season watching the Wild I guess. *cue the “I’ve got no more effs to give” song*

Looks like you were wrong. Best in the league. Heck yeah. Let's go Wild!!!!

God they're looking good this year. What's more shocking is how little personnel change they've had from last year, and yet they're doing so much better

Result of a young team and a good coach. Wait, nevermind, I think I just learned from the football thread that coaching doesn't matter?

Every year starts like this for the Wild, I’m still gonna play the role of the long-suffering fan!

Yup, must be a minnesota thing. Good enough to be relevant every year but not good enough to play at the high level.

Maybe this year will be different, one can only hope and just enjoy the ride right now. It sure is fun watching this team. That kap to rossi to boldy goal last night was a thing of beauty.

Not last year! I don't think I recent memory we've had this great of a start, and we've never had a super star leading the league
