How do people not like ND?

He's not a good player and he is an example of what is wrong with this franchise.

But he’s so good in the room. It’s hard to measure those off ice intangibles.

Badcock will never coach again, because of his misguided psychology experiment he did on Mitch Marner
- THE EVIL WITHIN


If memory serves, he got a lot of flak for playing Hyman more than Matthews his rookie year.

Who would have thought that Risto would be the Flyers best defenseman and Deslauriers would be the Flyers best forward!!! Take that @MJL!

I hate when MJL doesn’t give credit when it’s deserved but I hate when you over credit players. Nothing about this post is true.

Chuck ruined Minnesota cap to, so they had to trade Fiala. Now they are a one line team.
- THE EVIL WITHIN


Closer to a one man team. When they scored their first goal last night it marked the first time in nearly 7 games(414 min) that they scored a goal when Kaprizov was not on the ice. The Wild can’t generate 5 on 5 offense with Kaprizov on the bench.

Ersson just keeps stacking the Ws. Pretty impressive.

How does a goalie not look legit when he starts 6-0 in all his starts?

Hart has some real competition. Good problem to have.

The irony of the franchise at the moment. The search for goaltending in the past with a strong blue line and forwards. Today, 2 drafted goalies who are legit and major holes everywhere else.

Konecny injured
Sanheim healthy scratch
Farabee played less than 4 mins.

Big win though.

I think we’re gonna improve more than fans give credit. Fletcher just has to become smarter and stop sabotaging his own off seasons.

Seems like an easy solution to me. Kaprizov should play the entire game. What's wrong with their coach.

Farabee must still be recovering. He isn’t as bad of a player as he has shown this season.

Ersson is better than Hart. Prove me wrong! That wasn't very nice of Torts to scratch Sanheim in his hometown, but he has kind of earned it. Dude signs a big contract and then turns into a little girl again. WTF!

You skipped a step. First, prove that Ersson is better than Hart.

Ersson has a .913 save% vs .910 for Hart. Most analysts believe Goals Saved Above Expected is a much better metric. Hart is 8th in the league while Ersson is 34th.
