I remember being at a North Star game where Todd Elik was hit in the face with the puck after a slapper. Nice pool of blood formed on the ice afterwards. Yuck.

Overrated.

They could be really good next year if the injured defense comes back healthy and they keep what they have now. And have another good draft.

They could be really good next year if the injured defense comes back healthy and they keep what they have now. And have another good draft.

We end up with rookie CB's because we always seem to have injuries at that position. Always. And we let both our Vets go after last year.

Some of the positional personnel decisions have been bizarre.

Probably. They're desperate for content I'm sure.

At least the Gophers know how to do special jerseys. The Wild, as usual, is a dumpster fire.

With the ugliest logo in sports right there on the chest.

I would bet the Wilfs basically said that Mike and Rick are not going anywhere. I doubt they make this move and potential subsequent ones to rebuild if they don’t have that security blanket.

I bet you're right. Big gamble. I hope it works.

Cousins says if he keeps throwing int’s he will not finish season

They have no other options right now, so no.

Well, that sucks. First Sid dies and now Doc retires. I feel really old today.

I guarantee the Queens will not lose week 7 in the NFL, it’s their bye week L.O.L.

Bye beats the tar out of a lot of teams. That's one hell of a limb you've put yourself on.

Wow. Was not expecting that news. Awesome career. Hell of a guy.

Zygi has ripped this community for billions of dollars.

Vikings are playing like they're trying to get Zimmer fired. Not thinking Zimmer is going to be fired regardless of how bad this season ends up, considering he just signed a three year contract extension. Which means they can suck for another 3 years. Good plan. Never said that, but nice try. Just ...

Give Kirk another 400 million.

Why they extended Cousins contract stupid move 3 more years if 😡😡😡 Especially costly considering the Diggs response. Hopefully Jefferson turns out better than Diggs. We like our awful contracts in Minnesota. Would one of my teams please avoid the paralyzing contracts? Nope. They're all only one ove...

Because like the Minnesota Wild they think they can build the plane while it's in the air.

This franchise is so predictable.

We're Number One!!! We're Number One!!!!!

Do we own the playoff loss streak now for all 4 major sports? I saw a tweet that says yes.

swing the F-ing bat. I hate that so much. At least 3 critical strikeouts where guys sit there with the bat on their shoulders.

I agree but to be honest I did watch quite a few games this year and it always seemed like the hitting just wasn't there all that much. Not sure why.

It's Gardenhire's fault... It's Molitor's fault... It's the Yankees' fault... Where are we turning now? There has been one consistent thing through all of it. But, even if you go there the Vikings have had many many owners and it hasn't mattered. The professional hockey team has had many owners, an...

Rogers hasn't been pitching well the last couple of times I watched him. Not surprised.

As of now, Twins batting .130 in the series.

Seems good,.

17 in a row, Baby!!!! We're number one, we're number one, we're number one!!!

I agree. I think Cousins could tear defenses apart if he had a line like Marino did in the mid 80's.Instead he has one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL.

Pure insanity is signing a QB that can't move and a running back to big bucks with no offensive line. That is nuts.

Or some of us have been screaming about the lack of an offensive line for 6 freaking years now.

Cousins Sucks. Plain and Simple. Waste of money.

At least their fun to watch today. They're actually playing Football. Unlike whatever the hell that was the last two weeks.

By far the worst start since Zimmer took over. Those contract extensions for Zim & Spielman are looking mighty shaky right now 🔥🤫 And for 2 games Cousins has absolutely SUCKED I'd venture a guess that those are the three most important positions on a football team,. And we have epic fail in all 3. ...

Pretty awesome to see Dallas win with a Wild Goaltender. Gotta love that.

Twins had 8 hits and 10 walks tonight. They scored 1 run. Cruz left 11 men on base by himself. Rodgers was not good but this L is on the offense. Chicago tried to give them runs and the Twins refused to take them. It was a very frustrating game to watch. And I had gone to bed before the Buxton doub...

So, wait you using the championship remark when we find it insufferable when nodak fans hang the natty comment over our head? No, I’m saying only 2 Super Bowl rings over 28 years with that tandem of QB’s is a net LOSS for Packerr fans IMO. Indicative of numerous BLOWN opportunities ☝️ I agree. They...

Good job addressing the Oline, Vikes. It's only been a problem now for 1/2 dozen years? It was mostly the Oline. Cousins is baked into the cake already. He hasn't been the problem.

Zimmer should get a 10 year extension.

Kubiak is a genius.

Twins pitching has disappeared this weekend. Can't hit either. Just put in a left hander you're golden.

Lovecraft Country.

Hilarious considering Fiala called Bruce first after he was fired and thanked him for turning him around. But, yeah, let's all go with the bs narrative above.

The Russian will not be signing this year So 2024? Post is confusing. The NHL isn’t going to allow teams to add new contracts to their rosters if the 2019-2020 resumes this Summer. Kaprizov was hopeful he could have played this Summer and burned year one of his contract. He very well could sign his...

Excellent choice. She coached my daughter in a number of clinics. Great person.

Good. I hate the Seachickens.

Picks have been fine. I would have drafted another offensive lineman by now though. Hopefully they draft a bunch of those and practice squad some of them. They need youth and depth there for once.

I wonder what the deal was. Money, probably I suppose.
Most likely, it was the fact that she was offered only a one year extension.

Well, that was a huge mistake then.

Williams is looking for a payday. Are they able to fit him under the cap for the next few seasons?

That could be a problem. Either way it doesn't change what they did in the draft last night.

Vikings newest wide receiver caught 92.3% of this contested targets in 2019. Best in college football.

Also hearing that the Vikings are in on Williams LT from Washington. With the number of draft picks the Vikes have they could reasonably give Washington a package they want. Washington has been holding firm on their asking price, they don’t want to just give him a way. Sounds like the Browns are ou...

Cue the “no oline help with 2 1st round pics” criticism Cue the "Not a real contender anymore and therefore holes at CB, WR, and OL and can't get three positions with two picks". I watched the draft last night. While I wanted an offensive lineman more than anything I recognized at both picks that t...

Just started watching Outsider this week. 3 episodes in and each one we're like "WTF was that?!!" "What the heck is going on?!" We're definitely enjoying it.

I really liked it. Cynthia Erivo is fantastic.

You need to at least see the last 20 minutes of "Once Upon a Time in a Hollywood" If you want the traditional Trantino sequence, anyway. He shut it off before it was over. The whole movie is Tarantino. If you don't like the whole movie you don't really like him. The dialogue and friendship between ...

Garbage. I'm a QT fan, but what a hot mess this movie was. Watched 2 hours (it's 2:40 time length) and that was an hour too long, before shutting it off.
BOOOOO!

Good answer.

Curious where the RSNs are making their money as they systematically get dropped. YouTube TV and Dish are notable losses. Probably why I have to pay a $5 RSN fee with DirectTV that's outside of my regular monthly bill. This will start to have an interesting impact on major league sports more than c...

Koivu is in small company. It's a small list of players that have done it. He'll be listed somewhere just not on the Cup.

Koivu is done. It's more important to be one of the few players to play 1000+ games and play for the same team then win a Cup.

Zuccarello was playing really well until Boudreau threw the Parise sandbag on his line. Zucker was never intended to be on this roster. Neither was Spurgeon until Fenton got fired. Zucker has been banished to the 4th line and had a broken leg. Zuccarello has consistently played with the best center...

He didn't pan out. He should be outscoring Zucker by leaps and bounds with the contract he got. Zucker is on the way out. He just got here. He was coveted. Zuccarello does have a 10 team no move clause starting in 2022. The actual contract money for for him isn't an anchor considering he was a UFA....

To be honest the biggest thing I cannot figure out is why a team in this position signs to over 30 year old players to long term contracts last summer. It made no sense then and it makes no sense now. Zuccarello and Zucker has similar stats this season. And Jason broke his leg. Zuccarello's spot cou...

Fire Guerin. Bring back Fenton.

Spurgeon? I see arguments going both ways on that one. It was again another "market" level deal in the vein of Fletcher. All market contracts are only terrible if they don't pan out. His numbers (excluding this year which, I honestly don't know) warranted that contract.

You can't win if you don't score. It was 4-0 at one point. Yeah, the goaltending sucked but that was a team effort last night. They have contract issues, age issues, center issues, forward issues, defensive issues, and goaltending issues. Sure, every team in the NHL has issues but the issues here ar...

Their number one problem is their farm system. They don't have enough talent coming up. You look at Greenway and Kunin for example and either A. They aren't as good as we thought they were or B. They didn't have enough time to develop in the AHL. Either way it strikes at the heart of what ales the ...
