@JoeSmithNHL Why did Russo make you take the roadie during your birthday?

We've got 15 minutes until gametime, and it's my birthday, so why not do a quick AMA. Fire away with any Qs. #mnwild

@domluszczyszyn There's always one tho

calder vote has to be unanimous at this point my god

@NHL High IQ play? Quinn was hoping for a faceoff win and getting the puck on his stick as he drives up the center lane to win the game.

Check out this high IQ play 👀 With 12 seconds left in a tie game, Quinn Hughes swapped spots with Brock Faber before the faceoff. Brock Faber then made a big play to assist on the game-winning goal! 🤯

@JoeSmithNHL People upset about Yurov coming out when he's got 3 points his last 14 games while JoJo, always the scapegoat, has three times as many points during that same time. 🤯

#mnwild lines, looks like Marcus + Nick Foligno playing in first game together. On same line. Yurov could be out Boldy Eriksson Ek Tarasenko Kaprizov Hartman Zuccarello Johansson McCarron Brink M. Foligno N. Foligno Trenin Hughes - Spurgeon Brodin -Faber Middleton -Petry

@RussoHockey @nytimes Jessi was right, you're a machine. The quantity and quality of your work is unsurpassed, Mike.

@hockeystatcards It's too bad there's not a way to deduct points for Johansson passing up the one-timer on this yawning cage to potentially win us the game.

@JoeSmithNHL Jinx

This one has OT written all over it

@RussoHockey Since Jan 1: JoJo - 2 goals, 10 assists Vladi - 13 goals, 9 assists Hynes finally realizing which one belongs in the top six

My goodness did McCarron bail out Johansson

@JBoatwater @RussoHockey I'm absolutely going to give him a chance and hope he's successful, and I'm sure there are a lot of hockey people who know him who know WAY more than I do who voiced support for his selection.

@KeithLandgrebe @RussoHockey St. Cloud has zero resources and is barely surviving as a school. It might not exist in 10 years. Winning at hockey is going to be damn near impossible for them going forward and Larson is leaving there with a winning record in a tough conference too. Give him a chance 👍

Takeaways from Coyle re: men's coach: No doubt in my mind this was a true "mutual" breakup between U and Motzko. Motzko felt it was time. Also, Coyle's got a great poker face, but I think new coach hire is QUICK and doesn't have to be an alum, meaning Brett Larson has real shot.

@BrandonMileski Trenin was great in the playoffs last year and brings that size and physical element you need in a long playoff run. He's also sneaky efficient in offensive production given his limited minutes.

Fabbri & Sturm are the obvious choices for the Press Box. That 13th forward is the tricky one. Comes down to Trenin, N. Foligno, and Brink IMO. Will be interesting to see how Brink’s size will fare in a playoff series.

@DarrylJ888 @BrandonMileski Agreed

@BrandonMileski Nick Foligno is the first one out in my opinion. Then its Brink. I dont think trenin comes out at all

@RussoHockey @nytimes So Russo knows Larson got the job but can't report it... yet 😉🤔

@RussoHockey Surprised you could see past @FatPlanet's head 🤣

I didn’t have my glasses on. At first I thought Goldy was flipping me the bird.

@RussoHockey I'm sure Wally Holland LaPanta has an overly-specific statistic to defend JoJo

Turnover by Johansson after circling entire zone on his backhand for a Bedard breakaway goal. 2-0

@RussoHockey @PierreVLeBrun Why does a lone dinosaur get to hold the playoff format hostage when so many in the game are clamoring for change?

NHL GM meetings: Gary Bettman defiant about playoff format, goalie interference debate gets testy, playoff cap likely a non-issue, World Cup/Russia participation, Bettman supports Parros, Guerin and USA Hockey future, more by @PierreVLeBrun and me nytimes.com/athletic/71284…

@JamesMurrayECH @mnwild I know he's the superstar, but 97 has been awful, too

@mnwild Let’s keep putting 36 in the shootout

shootout thread 🧵

@RussoHockey Bingo

Guerin on not adding a top center: “There were some great players available but the asking prices were extremely high. I feel like we strengthened our team in different ways. At some point in time you still have to be responsible and do the right things and sometimes patience pays off. Everybody was pissed off we didn’t do anything on July 1. But if we did something stupid on July 1, we never would have got Quinn Hughes.”

@RussoHockey Vinnie upgrade?

Brink, who is a Minnetonka native, is a skilled winger. Smart, really good offensive instincts, can make plays, high compete and character. #mnwild see him as third-line right wing who can move up in lineup if needed. Pending RFA this summer

@JamesMurrayECH @FriedgeHNIC Not overpaying. We made the biggest trade of the season already, it just happened to be a few months before the deadline. Patience will pay off this summer. I want more than one kick at the can.

@FriedgeHNIC What are the Wild doing?

Buffalo 3rd & Chicago 6th this June
