This is like comparing Connor McDavid to Jonathan Toews lol

wild in 7 is a beautiful name for a baby girl

@BrandonMileski I'm a Yurov bobo, but that's rough.

Yuck. If JEEK can’t go in Game 5, could see them making a change here.

Quinn Hughes is now tied for the 17th-most postseason points in Wild franchise history.

Wild badly need to get some pressure going at 5-on-5. Out-attempted 19-3, trailing 10-1 in scoring chances, per Natural Stat Trick.

Can't quite get there, but I respect the take. Dude has been hitting another level this postseason.

@DexsTweets Honestly, you're cooking.

I need to shave. I also recorded two versions of this because two rocket foul balls in the span of 30 seconds nearly entered the press box during the first attempt.

It hurts a bit every time to see an old tweet from @jessi_pierce come up during research, but it's a great reminder to be joyful about hockey. Jessi would be loving this moment, and the only proper way to honor her is to savor it. Nothing but love for J-Fierce.

Zero chance dude's gonna avoid his fourth DUI tonight. Hopefully there's some sort of public transportation to get him back home.

The left has some good ideas, but they can't win elections outside small deep-blue districts. Okay, they can defeat a political dynasty in a mayoral primary, but they'll never get a mandate in a city-wide election. Sure, they got a mandate, but that's in New York City. It's not like they'll win in the New Jersey suburbs. Looks like the left won in the New Jersey suburbs, but they can't win state-wide races in purple states. Okay, they defeated the sitting Maine governor, but it's not like they can win...

"It's sad that Wild fans are getting so excited about a first round game." Yes, it is sad. They are excited because they don't want to be sad anymore. That is the point. Great job.

@Jabs_13 Love Boldy's game, but people are acting like he doesn't get to play most of his minutes with two players that complement him more or less perfectly.

Pretty crazy that people having been throwing shade at Kirill Kaprizov throughout these playoffs. Kaprizov stats thru Game 5: 2 Goals 7 assists (T1st in NHL) 9 points (1st in NHL) +9 (1st in NHL) Also, sick hesi on the ENG

@bigheadhcky I'm glad Kaprizov has been exposed as the only star player whose team puts them in favorable positions.

Kaprizov with Hughes/Faber: — 67.6% xGF% in 47 minutes 5v5 together Kaprizov with Brodin/Spurgeon: — 60.3% xGF% in 25 minutes 5v5 together Kaprizov without Hughes/Faber: — 51.8% xGF% in 33 minutes 5v5 apart Hughes/Faber without Kaprizov: — 44.2% xGF% in 55 minutes 5v5 apart

@jzulgad As much as Hughes has the puck, Faber having 17 of his own feels pretty significant, too.

Hughes’ ability to make a stretch pass is reminiscent of Kevin Love’s ability to hit a teammate in stride.

This robot is coming for your job (being drunk in a public park at 2 in the afternoon)

@jzulgad If the choice is between Myers and whoever was bad enough to prompt Dallas to trade for Myers, it’s probably a push. But agreed, an exposed Myers is a great thing for Minnesota.

Scratching Tyler Myers will hurt the Wild.

Anyway, you'll never guess who I'm writing about tomorrow.

Incredibly savvy play by Zuccarello to throw the puck into a safe spot for Kaprizov to collect. Wouldn't have earned a second assist, even if the goal was waived off, but Mats made the play happen.

Simple but effective plays from Zuccarello in transition in Game 5.
