Honestly, after the first 4 games, nothing would really surprise me at this point. The first 3 games were incredibly intense, and then the Wild just flat out did not even show up to the Pepsi Center (or whatever it's called now) in game 4. Game 5 will be a giant step for the Wild, because they need to put a full 60 minutes together. This "spot the other team 2 goals" shit won't cut it anymore. I'm sure Lemaire did nothing but chew ass for the last 2 days since that pathetic showing, and hopefully lit a fire in the team's collective belly.
I'm hoping Brent Burns steps up and takes over one of the games coming up. I think the Wild know they need to get more physical, and Burns can fit that bill on both ends of the ice. Kid's one of the better young, unsung defensemen coming up in the league. If they aren't finishing checks and putting some guys on their ass, (In particular, I'm thinking of the handful of guys cutting through the crease in games 1-3 running into Backstrom without it being called.) then they're going to be in trouble. I think the Xcel crowd will get them fired up out of the gate though, this time.
By the way, it's nuts to me that I have to come to the SPORTS discussion area of all places to get a halfway civilized discussion. What kind of Bizarro world have I stepped into?
The dedication you show to any particular console or company is inversely proportional to the number of times you have gotten laid. If you get laid enough, even if you prefer a certain brand, you just don't give enough of a shit to argue about it on the internet.
