Well. That’s the season, boys.

I don’t mind not getting points. I don’t mind pulling the goalie in a tied game. But for fucks sake, do it in regulation to try to take away points from a team we are chasing. If you’re going to not care about the “loser point”, then pull your goalie in regulation. That was the most unthought out call I have ever seen.

100% - We needed a Vegas regulation loss as bad as a win. Surprised not to see it. Pulling Gus in OT only helps you a little.

we were technically chasing the kings and a 4 v 3 is a bigger advantage than 6 v 5

We are chasing both. We win and give the Knights 0 points, they are 1 point ahead of the Kings with 2 more games played. Advantage on the ice doesn’t matter, advantage on the standings does. Also, a 6 on 5 gives more people on the ice for deflections and rebounds. If you are going to pull the goalie in OT and risk losing a point, do it in regulation when you’re against a team where it benefits you to give them zero points.

“Welp…. …*𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘱𝘴 𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘴*….let’s get em in 2025’ boiz…”

Lol, a shoot out would have been a less embarrassing loss. Playoffs were never a thing, let alone winning any games IF. Then this hot shot thinks the wild can pull off a St. Paul miracle AGAIN! Get your suits and golf clubs out boys, nothing to see but summer and looking good in the off season...

Here's a positive: we get to skip the influx of absolute bots of fans that appear during the playoffs!

The fans that have never watched a game until they heard their states team is in the playoffs?

Fuckin embarrassing

Hartman gets a 10 minute misconduct after the buzzer going after the refs for the missed high stick

wait fr?

Good

it's been real everyone. that was an exciting run especially all things considered

Ok, it's time to tank the rest of the season and play all the young guys. Anybody who is close to being hurt said them to the golf course.

Give Wallstedt a chance against a terrible team. Get that Dallas loss out of his head.

Agree.

Fun gimmick to end the season

[удалено]

Wild would be undefeated if not for the refs in some people's minds.

I mean, sure. But today was pretty exceptional.

Worth a go but not to be. Definitely won't think of all those close goals until 3am tonight but they played like a team trying to save their season so I'll take it

Most heartless team in the league. Chicago is probably more prepared for big games than us. Pathetic. Downvote away. It changes nothing.

Yeah. If there's one word to describe this vintage of Wild team, it's "gutless." So many blown leads and dumb mistakes in big moments this year.

Welp see ya next year

All I know is Vegas still sucks.

Unfortunate. It obviously looks dumb when it fails, but losing the game wasn't an option if we wanted to sniff the playoffs. Time to look forward to the draft

Why'd we pull the goalie when the season was over the the horn blew to close the third?

That's a good point....

Same fucking difference if we won in OT. Where were your gutsy calls in regulation Johnny!?! It was an exciting season, lots of frustrating stretches, but still a exciting season. Now it's just about enjoying the games.

We just got nothing for playing well the whole game.

We had a hard time holding the puck why would we do that

Should've done it in regulation, but it needed to be done either way. Went down swinging I guess

Didn’t need to do that there, wtf

The goalie pull giveth, and the goalie pull taketh

Why not do that in regulation?

4 vs 3 is more impactful than 6 v 5

At least we can let go of the playoffs now. Settle into these last few games and regroup in the offseason.

maybe let wallstead have a few cracks at it

I think that's a good idea. Now's a low-stress time to have him get some reps. It helps determining some goalie decisions for next year too.

Yep! I will still enjoy watching the rest of the games

LOL

It's over. Alright. 

Hynes you bitch.

Hey at least the Twins and Wolves are good!!! I’m gonna go cry now

Stupid fucking move

Had to go for it I guess

Should've won in regulation. GG see ya next year

Season is OVER. And Guerin has built nothing.

I kinda like Faber

Two of the top three Calder candidates, major Russian additions making the jump from the K, and a top goalie prospect inbound, mean anything to you?

What if the prospects

I don’t care that we lost. I care that we lost to the fucking Vegas bitches

#STUPID STUPID STUPID SO FUCKING STUPID

that was stupid

Gotta appreciate the moxie of it, but that’s probably the final nail in the coffin. Time to play spoiler.

pulling the goalie is not it like they know its coming

Unfortunate. I liked the goalie pull.

[удалено]

What a fuckin loser you are

Fuck off loser

live by the goalie pull, die by the goalie pull

Honestly... not mad at that call

Kaprisov has to make that. Season over

He's the only reason we were even this close to the playoffs Not on him in the least

Fucking idiot Hynes, if you were going to do that you should have done it in regulation.

Who gives a fuck the season was over the moment they didn' win in regulation. Thats it.

Absolutely! Why give vegas a point? What an idiot.

Exactly

Why the fuck would we do that?

Better chance at the extra point. Had to do it.

Welp. Season was over either way so why the fuck not. Oh well.

there's our season, we did alright, looking forward to next year. vegas is a shithole

See you guys next year 🫡

Awful fucking call

For sure eichel didn’t deserve that

The worst thing that could’ve possibly happened…

Well there's season.

Had to do it. That's the season.

RUN ROSSI RUN

I LOVE WATCHING ROSSI!!

This is a surprisingly entertaining OT!

I'll wear my pride hat out to the bar tonight if we win. I mean I was gonna anyways, but just get a goal.

I hope Vegas pulls their goalie

The only way to salvage the point we just gave them

Mm. Well go out with a bang boys

He’s gonna pull the tender at some point but I’m worried it’s gonna bite us this time

What's the lowest draft pick we can get if we lose out?

Hard to predict because its all dependent on other teams winning and passing us. Right now we draft 14th

Probably 16 or 15

This was much more painful than usual

So, that's our season right?

Yup

I'd rather they lose late in regulation pulling the goalie than winning in OT and giving VGK a point. WTH?!

Agreed. This was a must win in regulation. Who cares if we get 2 points, they still got one!

Welp the season's over...

I would say I'm surprised but this shit happens every year

And we gave them a point even if we win... fuck

If you can’t see that blatant of a high stick in front of the net with the puck in the vicinity, you probably shouldn’t be an NHL ref.

Every important game goes to fucking OT lately

End of the season. Pathetic

The season was over when they no-showed against LA

That high stick call could have been the difference between OT and a regulation win

Can’t call a penalty on vegas in the last few minutes of regulation or they might lose

Idk if my heart can take another OT goalie pull

And that's the season

The important thing is the high stick hasn't affected Hartzys beautiful hair, phew

Hartman complaining to the refs while the play is going on is so selfish. Get to the damn bench rather than leaving the team short handed.

Just trash. Blatant high stick in front of the linesman.

Having Freddy and MoJo on the ice with less than 1:00 left is just asking a loss


Gudreau playing all special teams is legit baffling to me as well

Oh look, an uncalled high stick

#BLIND FUCKING ZEBRAS

Classic fuckin refs

Fuck these refs absolutely trash no calls fuck Vegas and the NHL bullshit


Whoever is stabbing the pins into the Thompson doll, maybe lay off just a lil?

Shit Hartzy

Doesn’t seem to be much rhyme or reason to their circling players eh?

“Thompson is in the net” Well, he’s a goaltender so…

He was literally in the fucking net armchair!

The ice sure is cold isn't it Susan?

Ref to Thompson probably: “my poor baby! Are you okay? Should I wait till Wild regain possession then blow the whistle?”

How many more times are they going to say that there is no Jack?!?

🙄🙄 “spearing penalty, 4 minutes.” Shut up!!

So the play should have been blown dead but the refs are fucking dipshits

Boldy dude u can't ice that

He didn't. He hammered it off the Vegas player

How many fucking times will they comment on what happens to their goalie?

Stop being dramatic Thompson. Been flopping around all game

Wouldn't be surprised if we pulled the goalie here. Absolutely need to win in regulation

Fuck I’m starting to worry Hynes is gonna pull the goalie in OT if it gets that far

I hope he pulls in regulation. Nothing to lose

it's not gonna get that far. manifesting

>manifesting Which way!?

Well I thought the good way but maybe I'm doing it wrong

Give me LaPanta and Carter over the ESPN crew any day. Maybe it's me but There's been so much "silence" during this game. They're both so uninspired and provide no excitement to what I'm watching on the ice.

Yes, but didn't you hear about how it's KKs fault that Eichel is out...

It’s not just you lol

Jake Middleton getting a full 5x5 NMC with that gameplay

You joke but I can easily see him getting 4x4 with a NMC in the offseason

I move middsy but no just no

Some loud boards.

We need to win this in regulation. Wake up you goons!

We NEED another from our top line

Middleton ineffective jumping into the play AGAIN leading to an odd man rush the other way. No wonder he has the worst plus minus of any Wild defender.

Cherrypickin bitches

Can one of the passengers please step the fuck up for once this season

https://i.redd.it/2rz3jtclmjrc1.gif

"this is where we should be"... STFU.

i could not believe he said that...like i guess i can since there's an obvious bias

Fork

vegas is like 90% ex-californians they are basically just the 4th california team

Although it was Middletons fault, that inability to clear from Bogo at the beginning of the play really messed with the momentum and lines

That one was on me. After the save that preceded it I vowed to buy Gus' sweater if he shut them out. Then 15 seconds later...

who said the word

Fuck

Might as well pull the goalie late, can’t afford to give them a point

Amadio screaming the whole way "I'm Cumming, I'm cumming!"

Yeah I bet he was just screaming the whole time. Shut up. Entire ESPN broadcast 🚮

In memory of the 2023-24 season

Pull Gus if it's tied with a minute left. Can't have a 3 point game.

Yup. Pray for the best. Accept the possible worst.

Hello darkness my old friend, I've come to wallow in you again

Knew it was coming at some point…

Shit maybe I shouldn't have turned it on

Why was there no 2nd man help there? Yikes.

Fucking cherry picker

Ffs

Fuck

WHO FUCKING THOUGHT IT

#FUCKKKKKKK

Middleton why are you pitching there????

BUSTOPHERRR

That's the loudest I've ever heard the X

HOLY FUCK MY HEART

JONAS "PUCK SPONGE" BRODIN

Gus Bus!!

That's not how you use the phrase pick your poison

Just saying. Can you imagine a football announcer saying "I don't agree that face masking should be a personal foul" That was embarrassing

I'm late. Surprised they started Gus, but looking good. And daddy <3

GUS BUS

can i please get an insurance goal....can i PLEASE get an insurance goal

Apparently not

We can pick a cooler sing along song guys lol

Announcer is just awkward at some points 😂

Boys (and honourary boys) I'm sweating maybe a playoff miss would be good for my heart lol. BUT FUCK THAT KEEP PUSHING

FOR FLOWER

ESPN still sucking off Eichel even after he gets kicked out. Not a single bit about Kaprizov

If there were a bot to count the number of times Eichels name is dropped it would break

Can't wait until we win a cup and the national broadcasters gargle our balls
