Hockey. Jim Nill is class personified.

Two great teams

@ColbyCohen36 He will be the captain starting 27-28 season

Superstar talent with super star compete level. Couldn’t agree more 👇🏻

Wild need more from Kirill Kaprizov. I understand he had three points in a Game 1 win … it was a blowout. He was an absolute ghost in Game 3. No Zuccarello, I get it. But he makes $17 million starting next season. Not good enough tonight. You ask for that money, need more.

Get auston Matthew’s to center boldy and he might score 60

Matt boldy is a SUPERSTAR

Damn those wolves showed how good the could be tonight. Even left a lot on the bone missing so many FT. #howl

@JonKrawczynski On pace to score 100 points and lose by 56. Incredible

And so ends the most mentally unhinged quarter of Wolves basketball in recent memory. They should be down 30 right now.

Listen, I love Quinn Hughes as much as anyone. But, this national broadcast needs to stop attributing everything faber does well to his playing partner. Faber is a stud on his own. The duo are dynamic together and separately. #wild

.@amazon this morning, one of your delivery drivers went on a swearing rant at my 2 5 year old boys because the cart at Costco was in the way of a parking spot. I’d enroll this person in some mental help classes

Ilhan Omar, caught in the Minnesota welfare fraud scandal, claims she is not a millionaire and there were "major accounting errors" in her public disclosure filing

@brianmccormick Such a great summary of the state of things. Curious, who would you define as “we” in the first sentence? I ask because I’m trying to figure out who defines the incentives as opposed to who governs the results. Thanks for writing this.

This may be the best (most important 🤷‍♂️) paragraph I have written in 25 years.

The #sioux would go 0-15 on the pp tonight. Complete face plant from that unit.

Did the #sioux get bag skated yesterday? Cannot believe how slow they look, indecisive on pp, no creativity, easy to play against. Can’t believe it on this stage. Need next one so bad

One of the 3 worst periods of the season for the Sioux. Slow, no forecheck, poor goal by spunar, and lazy in defensive zone. Wisco buzzing. However, it’s the worst lead in hockey. Let’s go #Sioux. Pick it up

Fans are pregaming in Vegas.

There's a decent collection of Wisconsin and Michigan fans cruising around. A few wearing Denver gear. But you can't move 2 steps around Vegas this week without running into a dozen Fighting Sioux fans. NoDak is representing hard.

NoDak fans everywhere in Vegas. Everywhere you look you see Sioux gear

@Mavpuck Go to 3 game series where the higher seed can choose if it wants game 1&2 or 2&3 at home. All other levels after high school have a series, why make it one game and done. Reduce number of regular season games by 1 weekend and let’s go

I think we need to hear from *all* interests involved before making a major structural shift like this. The “loudest proponents” so far have been the coaches, players, media, and fans of schools that, historically, are likely to host 1st round games (at minimum). Makes sense. Much more affordable and convenient to play at home — for those schools and their fans. But what about the schools that would be “perennial” road teams? What about the fact that (depending on the structure) you could see the entire tournament last more than two weekends (as it is structured now). And since the spin on this is that home games provide a “more exciting” atmosphere, couldn’t we also make the argument that “scrapping” the NPI and letting humans determine things — so the matchups are “more exciting for TV” — be the next step?
