Wild are the anti- Babcock.

fleury chasing some records and playing what may be his last ever game in Montreal. So he gets the start. Guerin already said they know he’s chasing records and they’ll do what is reasonable for him. I get that this is early season so easy to put him in, but I’m glad they are better than the babcocks of the world who denied modano his 1500th game

Wild are missing over 31M in cap tonight and have scored two short handed goals against Montreal on the same kill lol

Maybe it doesn’t sting much because both were scored by Duhaime, which is frenchy sounding.

Him being from Coral Springs, FL probably doesn’t help, however.

Edit: I see now one of them was updated to Dewar.

Also was going to bench Chelios for the Outdoor Classic in Chicago until Holland and Nill stepped in and pressured Babcock not to.

So to spite everyone, Babcock dressed seven defensemen that game, let Chelios have the opening shift, and then parked his *ss on the bench for the rest of the game.

That's nice. Although there was a record he could have tied if he had played the opener and won which (Fleury) did not.
 
Sportswriters are using up their digital ink early this year to lament the attendance issues perennial struggling teams are having early in the season.

Like... read the room?

Fed continues to raise interest rates, student loan payback is resuming, unemployment is low but steady, credit card utilization has exploded, disposable income is disappearing, corporate spending is slowing, luxury boxes aren't the draw they once were, venues are continually adding costs to tickets or boxes without adding value, venues are cutting staff and expenses...

You're goddammed right going to a hockey game isn't first on a lot of people's lists of things to do right now.
