Looked damn good early, got off to a 2-0 lead

Stopped skating after that, Wild took it to 'em for a bit, scored off a rocket from the point

Stabilized a bit more toward the end of the period

Emery looks...OK. Not bad, but not great

Hard to expect much more from a backup with hip/mobility issues

Really like the way the team is battling without their best player on the ice the last few games

Yeah. I've seen him look sharper than this -- I understand he's not Mason, but he's usually calmer in the net than he has been the last two starts. Looked more in control at the beginning of the year, I thought

He has been a bit scrambly. Maybe trying to do too much to compensate for slow lateral ability

Hard to expect much more from a goalie who's defense isn't boxing out the man screening him.

you mean like grossmann's 5 seconds into the 2nd period?
- hammarby31


Damn -- Grossmann didn't let up one inch

Not saying I would've called it a penalty, but yeah, I could see that one getting called

He was fine until he gave the extra OOMPHF at the end.

Just got home...
Looks like we dominated the start and the Wild have balanced it out.

Not sure on that hand on the puck call unless they have a better view.
