DonaldBrashear Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Ok, so I just went onto NHL.com and sorted the standings by "goals scored". Now, to no one's surprise, Vancouver is dead last (30th place) with only 17 goals scored this year. BUT THAT'S NOT THE SHOCKING PART.... Are you ready? If so, click the spoiler tag, but be warned, it is quite shocking. People with heart problems should not click it. Pregnant women? Don't even think about it. Only click the "Reveal hidden contents" button below if you absolutely 100% prepared to fully enter the bizarro world of the NHL, where all common sense and logic has gone out the window and we are left drifting in a parallel universe where up is down and down is up and left is right. Ok, I warned you... The Minnesota "Freaking" Wild are #1 in overall scoring, with 32 goals scored. WTF!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time Lord Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 It's not that surprising. Minnesota today is much different than the team that got the reputation of being boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintPatrick33 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Maybe that no-name coach they hired in the offseason is now paying dividends? Bruce Boudreau knows how to build a regular season juggernaut, his win % is the best all time. Its the playoffs he has trouble with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasmijn Meeuwissen Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Doesn't Minesota always start hot? Wasn't it only a few years ago when they were leading the President's Trophy race for more than half the season but ended up missing the playoffs?

Cramarossa Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 They are playing like men possessed. When the older Granny scored his first yesterday he was the 18th (!) player to register a goal on that team, something like that. Think they had 20+ players with at least a point. Wild indeed. I'm hoping the they can keep the momentum going. I also hope the Canucks overtake them eventually though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That return, PLUS keeping Weber, & they prob have a Cup by now. Totally agreed. They claimed they were shocked and disappointed that they weren't "in it" to sign Suter when Minny signed him to the 112 mill deal. Apparently Suter had told them I want to explore but I want to come back, pretty much match the offer i receive and ill sign back. I was shocked that they fell for that ruse. Could have gotten a huge haul back for Suter at the trade deadline. Who knows maybe they kinda thought the same thing but wanted to make a run or win a cpl rounds for extra playoff revenue and thought they couldn't do it without Suter. It was a fail at the end of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love watching a Wild/Stars matchup. Always exciting to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Kane Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 You clearly don't follow Minnesota at ALL. They have Bruce Boudreau now. They aren't the same team when Jaques Lemaire was head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
