I liked Jacques Lemaire and what he did with what he had, on the other hand I don't like what GM Doug Risebrough has done the same GM that was run out of Calgary for trading Doug Gilmour to Toronto for gary leeman he hasn't changed much and probably is time for a change at the GM spot for the Wild as well ... The trade that sticks out the most was Pavol Demitra, give the Kings a up and coming Patrick O'sullivan and a !st round pick, well if you all remember the year before Demitra went to the

A- Fire Lemaire.  The game has changed into a much faster, wide open game since his Habs days.  The game has clearly passed him by ... B- SPEND $$ ON WORTHY PLAYERS!!  We are currently how much under the salary cap? ... C- Waive Martin Skoula.  He can't skate.  NEVER throws his weight around.  Stands still and looks for the 100 foot pass from his own zone.  The guy sucks! ... D- Trade Gaborik ASAP.  He clearly doesn't want to be here.  With Lemaire's system, no one wants to be.

Who knew? After the game, I was digging around, and look what I found? All the Wild players just uploaded their Facebook statuses ... seems they aren't that different from us afterall. Lets take a looksy shall we? ...   ... Niklas Backstrom is sorry he can’t win every game by himself ... Eric Belanger wants to thank the trainers for the amazing rub down ... Marc-Andre Bergeron is willing to shoot only if the crowd yells at him enough ... Derek Boogaard is punching you in the face! ...
