@RussoHockey Getting dominated on home ice in the third period isn't usually a recipe for success

Matt Duchene PPG forces the first overtime of this series

@Adrioidle @RussoHockey Never have been. Never will.

@RussoHockey At what point are the refs held accountable for the bs of a game?

A livid John Hynes just staring down Gord Dwyer as the period ends.

@RussoHockey Three concussions, zero penalties

Boldy down the tunnel and to the locker room after getting hit in the back of the head hard by a leaping Jamie Benn. Hynes having an angry conversation with referee Gord Dwyer. Benn slewfooted Boldy last game and no call

@PaulCharchian Stop

WOW! I know it’s only one game of two-month-long playoff process, but the Wild look like Minnesota’s best chance for a finals appearance in years.

@RussoHockey @nytimes Are they really going to start Gus in game 1?

Wild’s Hunter Haight scores first NHL goal, Jesper Wallstedt finishes with a gem: Takeaways nytimes.com/athletic/71973… via @NYTimes

@RussoHockey Stick is in half and they're bitching about it

Wild, who have 3 power-play goals, getting one here after Rantanen takes a frustrated slashing minor on Brodin. Wild power play down a goal with 2:30 left

@RussoHockey No TV for the Wild tonight other than ESPN+? Says the game is on TNT but they're showing basketball

@JoeSmithNHL Same ol' Wild

Bedard to Nazar on a 2-on-1 and this building is jumping now

@RussoHockey The effort level is inexcusable

7:41 left in the second, MacKinnon breaks the seal. Kadri jumped on Hughes' exchange with Faber and gets it to MacKinnon

After the tragedy in Minnesota yesterday, I ask a very simple question: What are we OK with? I truly believe this is worth your time. Also, don’t argue in the comments. Don’t even read them.

@greggrosenthal Rams are too

Raheem is trying to run out the clock with 32 minutes to play and 7 points scored on offense. No way this backfires!

@RussoHockey This power play looks like it's FINALLY going to be a thing. Hughes is a game changer.

70th power-play for Kirill Kaprizov, a franchise record

@thorku The most obvious body-weight penalty ever called. Feet off the ground, full body weight on the QB. That's fine if you don't like the rule, but that is an obvious a penalty as there is under the rules.

Dallas Turner penalized 15 yards for sacking Lamar Jackson

@PaulCharchian Awful call????? Are you kidding?????

That’s an awful call, turning a long field goal into a chip shot.

@GolfDigest And he's constantly pissed off

Rory McIlroy's year in review. 🙌

@GolfDigest The story doesn't even include what he said

Rory McIlroy fired an all-time roast at J.J. Spaun at the Masters. 😳 glfdig.st/29Wz50WoBTB

@Rick_Ferri @Rod_X_Grossman What a disgusting, miserable piece of garbage you are.

@Rod_X_Grossman I will not honor the death of a convicted criminal who died in the process of being arrested for committing another crime, especially not on Memorial Day weekend.

BBC says “Americans remember George Floyd on fifth anniversary of death”. What Americans? Not this American. I remember veterans who died for their country, not fentanyl addicts who died committing crimes.

@RussoHockey @JoeSmithNHL Is it just me, or is Guerin getting a pass? What's his job security like these days? How many signings and trades have worked out?

Ask Russo and Smith, Part 2, includes everything from Rossi trade questions and free agent and other trade proposals from #mnwild fans to futures of Jiricek, Hynes, Hartman and so much more 🥩 by ⁦@JoeSmithNHL⁩ and me nytimes.com/athletic/63621…

@RussoHockey @JoeSmithNHL Stop handing out huge contracts to old guys who can't score!!!!

Shackles finally off, Wild GM Bill Guerin knows it’s time to deliver a contender By ⁦@JoeSmithNHL⁩ and me nytimes.com/athletic/63378…
