...ing the helmet, he had a jersey on with his name, and even had his own stick.

... later said Alexander Kerfoot should’ve drawn an interference penalty – the Wild gained possession and defenseman Jonas Brodin fired the puck 200 FEET into the vacated net to make it 3-1.

...aturday—particularly before he was crushed by the 6'7", 255-pound behemoth. Motte crumpled to the ice and looked dazed as he quickly got to his FEET, but made it to the bench under his own steam and didn't miss a shift. An injustice to a player like Motte doesn't draw the same fan reaction ...
