They lose to Colorado in that showdown, 110 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 2: and then the overtime loss to the Predators in the 111 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: final game before the holiday break back on Tuesday at 112 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: Grand Casino Arena, the State of the Wild at almost 113 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 2: the halfway mark, what do you say? 114 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 3: Fabulous? 115 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 8: Uh? 116 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 3: You know, you know, after after. 117 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 4: What we've talked about at nauseum, you know, the poor 118 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 4: October Uh and then into November, December. Listen, Kevin, you've 119 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 4: been around this, you know forever. You know you're not 120 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 4: gonna win every game. You're just not going to win 121 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 4: every game. And the NHL is a really, really good league, 122 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 4: and everybody wants to win, and so you're it's it's 123 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 4: it's it's very difficult. And and but the run that 124 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 4: they've been on, they are in great shape heading into 125 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 4: the second half. And you know, we've talked about the 126 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 4: addition of. 127 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 3: Of Quinn Hughes and what he means. 128 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 4: So I think they're I think they're in great shape 129 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 4: now if they can just stay healthy. Uh, that is 130 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 4: going to be the key for them heading into the 131 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 4: second half. 132 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 2: When we were on the air last week, at this time, 133 00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 2: it was going into a monumental weekend of against powers 134 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 2: from the Western Conference. So the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday, 135 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: followed by the Avalanche on Sunday. They took care of 136 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 2: business against the Oilers once again, beat them up five 137 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 2: to two. The Avalanche game didn't quite go according to script. 138 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 2: They ended up losing five to one, and they were overpowered, overmatched. 139 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: I don't think that's, you know, a terrible thing. That 140 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 2: Avalanche team is pretty good. Yeah, but what did you 141 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: take about from the weekend, in particular the matchup with Colorado. 142 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 4: Well, after playing Edmonton and then going right back the 143 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 4: next day and having to play Colorado, No, I'm not 144 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 4: gonna be making excuses. 145 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 3: For the while. 146 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 4: Colorado's a hell of a team, right, we know that. 147 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 4: But they beat Colorado too, So what do you say 148 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 4: about that game? You go back and say, oh, boy, 149 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 4: you know, is Minnesota head of Colorado or you know, 150 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 4: you don't know's it's the regular season and you're gonna 151 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 4: beat them and you're gonna lose to them. And unfortunately 152 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 4: they played them on a back to back and and 153 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 4: you know, I think they were they were a little 154 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,799 Speaker 4: bit tired and they didn't have their bite. Colorado did, 155 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 4: and Colorado wins. That's how I looked at that game. 156 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 4: And it really didn't expect them going into the game 157 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 4: to beat Colorado that day, and sure enough they didn't. 158 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 4: So you know, you just you move on to the 159 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 4: next game. 160 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, despite that, an incredible run here, fifty points in 161 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 2: the first thirty eight games, at the. 162 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 3: First time they've ever done that, right, I don't know, 163 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 3: I think I read that. Yeah, you're probably right. 164 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 2: I mean it's been just think of if they didn't 165 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 2: stub their toe out of the gate in October. They 166 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 2: lost nine to twelve in that opening month, and they've 167 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 2: been on fire ever since. Despite the two game mini 168 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 2: slide going into the break, the numbers are incredible, and yeah, 169 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 2: the Colorado Avalanche are running away with the Central Division. 170 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 3: They are the team to be. 171 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 2: There's just no doubt about it, no doubt, and they're 172 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: full of firepower. That said, the Wild are one and 173 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 2: one against them on the season series, and the next 174 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: two matchups of course, will be at Ball Arena later 175 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: on this season. The other point, though, is the fact 176 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 2: that they went to Columbus last week or two weeks 177 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 2: ago and they beat them five to two. And in 178 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 2: that lineup they were missing seven Ramers, three of their 179 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 2: their defensive corps, they were missing two from their top six, 180 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 2: and yet somehow they continued their run and ended up 181 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 2: winning seven consecutive victories with with the winning against the Oilers. 182 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 2: That said, they're as healthy as they've been. The only 183 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 2: guy missing right now as far as I know is 184 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 2: Damon Hunt. They go into the holiday break feeling really 185 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 2: good about themselves as far as from a health perspective. 186 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 2: How does that help them to slot guys in, getting 187 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: Joe Hanson and Zucarolla back, getting you know, the three 188 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,719 Speaker 2: guys on the defensive line, defensive core back, and then 189 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 2: having a healthy goaltending How does that make you feel 190 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 2: coming out of the holiday break? 191 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 3: Well, obviously it makes me feel good. 192 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 4: Here here's what I'll throw at you, Kevin, and you know, 193 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 4: you made a great point about the Columbus game. You've 194 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 4: had how many minor leaguers or you know, a American 195 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 4: hockey yeaus and nothing because they did a great job. Right, 196 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 4: And here's here's the point. Point is they were like 197 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 4: that for quite a quite a while, right, I mean, 198 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 4: guys out but the but the main thing is that 199 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 4: John Hines and which is very hard in their step. 200 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 4: It's very hard with every team in the league is 201 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 4: to get everybody to buy into what you want to 202 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:22,679 Speaker 4: get done. And in Minnesota did that in November and December, 203 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 4: and you know, everyone was saying, this is how we 204 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 4: got to win, this is how we got to play, 205 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 4: and everyone bought into it. Now, Kevin, yes, it's great 206 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 4: to get all of those guys back because they're all 207 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 4: key guys that were off the lineup. But now you 208 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 4: have to integrate again. 209 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 3: And and and and. 210 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 4: Almost say okay, fellas, here's how we're going to play. 211 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 4: This is how we have to win, and to get 212 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 4: those guys who are ont of the lineup back in 213 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 4: to buy into exactly what John Hines and his staff 214 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 4: is saying. So, oh, there might be a little bit 215 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 4: of a I don't know, I a down trend if 216 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 4: you will, hopefully not just you know, just to get 217 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 4: you know, it's gonna take time for all those guys 218 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 4: to get back into that rhythm. 219 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 3: How are we gonna win? How are we going to play? 220 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 3: This is what we have to do. 221 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 4: I have no doubt that they will, but it may 222 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 4: just it may take a couple of games to get 223 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 4: everybody back on the same page. 224 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 3: I'll tell you. 225 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 2: The one thing I was most excited about the addition 226 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 2: of Quinn Hughes to see in action was him in 227 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 2: three on three action. 228 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 3: I see him on deployed three on three. Oh my god. 229 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 3: In overtime it didn't. 230 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,319 Speaker 2: Quite work out against the Nashville Predators. I don't think 231 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 2: that's going to be the full body of work now 232 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: Quinn Hughes in in the extra session for the Wild 233 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 2: going forward. But what do you think about the possibilities 234 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 2: of him out there with who you know, probably Caprice 235 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 2: Ivan whoever else? 236 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, to start things off? Scary for any other team? 237 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 4: I can I can tell you awfully, awfully scary because 238 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 4: you know his ability just to create. 239 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 3: And skate and you know, and and pass. 240 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 4: It's it's ridiculous and so uh and and and just 241 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 4: wait until you know, now Zucarello's back in the lineup 242 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 4: with that power play, and once they understand what each 243 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 4: other wants to do or what they're going to do. 244 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 4: And these guys are so their high, their IQ level 245 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 4: is so high, Kevin that uh, it's it's gonna be 246 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 4: it's really gonna be fun to watch. And and that's 247 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 4: how that's how dangerous Minnesota, uh could be as we 248 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 4: you know, head into the second half. 249 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 2: It's exciting to think about the Olympics too, and and 250 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 2: and especially going up against Colorado last weekend and you 251 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 2: had the opportunity to watch, and who knows how the 252 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 2: final pairings will be, but most likely the top pair 253 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 2: for the Americans is going to be could be should 254 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 2: be Faber and Quinn Hughes. And then for the Canadians 255 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 2: Macarr and Taves to see that little snapshot there last week. 256 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if that'll be the pairings for their 257 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 2: respective squads. But it's so fun to watch, especially Favor 258 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 2: and Hughes right in our own backyard, man, as it 259 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: will blast. 260 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, and you know the great thing, and you know, 261 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 4: I don't think Brock Favor now he's starting to get 262 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 4: the credit a little bit for what he's done in 263 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 4: the last six weeks. But he's been he's been phenomenal. 264 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 4: And and Quinn Hughes knows what brock Favor can do 265 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 4: right and what and not only on the offensive side, 266 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 4: but more importantly on the defensive side. So that says, 267 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 4: Quinn says, you know what, I can take a chance here, 268 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 4: I can do a little bit more. I mean, you know, 269 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 4: Quinn certainly does not need you know, uh, brought Favor 270 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 4: to to you know, to to cover for him all 271 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 4: the time because he's such a great skater and can 272 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 4: get back and whatever, you know, whatever the case may be. 273 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 4: But but to have those two together, but to know 274 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 4: that brock Favor is thinking defense first, really, I think, 275 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 4: and gives Quinn a little bit more latitude and what 276 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 4: he's capable of doing. 277 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 2: If you want to get in on the conversation, you 278 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 2: can text us six four six eighty six.
