And the WILD loss games they should not have also. It happens to every team. while i may agree with you if it were against any other team, before this season, the avs had only lost ONCE to the ceebeejays in team history. i don't think that the avs have dropped that much or the ceebeejays gained that much for the avs to lose in the way that they did. plus the wild won the division. so congrats to them. but those two losses if you saw the games weren't the close ones that you think they may have been. we gave up a 3-1 lead in the last 10 minutes of the game and lost 6-4. my post was not about the wild but about us and how not only was that an almost microcosm of our season, but how two games has literally altered our chances of doing any damage this postseason. in other words, unless we steal a game in st. paul our of the 4, we're done in round one. Actually this series scares me. All the Wild fan's wanted to play you guys because we have struggled against Calgary. You guys are probably more dangerous then them. I think this goes at least 6 games maybe 7. Of course the Wild win.
