I have heard that the goal was to create division rivalries by making playoff matchups. Seems unnecessary. And no one cares about Divisions.I have never heard anyone brag about winning the Atlantic or Central or whatever.

Hey! Wild moving on. Hope they get some rest, Dallas made them work again.

Excellent series. I was worried for Wild after Wallstedt misplayed the second goal, but he pulled it together. It seemed like Dallas lacked urgency after Wild tied it back up at 2. Next series doesn't get easier. Enjoy the rest and hope the Avs are rusty.

Tampa/Hab's and Buffalo/Boston games tonight might be the best hockey played in the playoffs.

Im loving that Mammoth Knights series too. I hope all three go to Sunday
Logan stankoven has had a playoffs so far.
I think both Colorado and Carolina ‘won’ the Rantanen trades and it might not be close.
See you in the finals, @Wildabeest

Why are tickets half the cost in Ball arena tomorrow compared to what they are in St. Paul? We are legit debating and thinking about flying to Denver for a game rather than going to St. Paul with those prices!Logan stankoven has had a playoffs so far.

Holy crap on those prices! In both places. I can get second round Canes tickets, lower level between the blue lines for under $300 direct from the box office. Trying to decide if I get a game 5 ticket or wait for the next round.
It looks like a big part of the difference between Denver and MSP prices is that MSP is sold out and you only have highly marked up resale tickets available; whereas Denver still has a decent number direct from the box office. Perhaps that’s because Denver has more alternative things to do than MSP

That Stankoven, Blake, Hall line has been on fireLogan stankoven has had a playoffs so far.

. If our top line with Aho, Jarvis and Svechnikov get back to their usual scoring level, we’ll be unstoppable. The offensive depth of this team is the best it’s ever been.

Normal season price is 200 ish for lower bowl goal end, that is now about double that at 400

That’s what happens when you win a playoff series for the first time in 10yrs.

CO is like LA and Vegas in the regular season. Opposing teams fans can find tickets and rival the home crowd if loud enough. Not so sure about the playoffs though. MN fans travel. Might be interesting to watch crowd reactions tonight.Holy crap on those prices! In both places.

Probably people similar to me where im 5 hours from St. Paul but only an hour from an airport and the net cost and even travel time isnt much different.

Bigger factor is the talent and depth give the Wild a real shot at the cup. IMO we could never say that before. Wild went 2-1-1 in the regular season against the avs this year with one of the losses being a shootout loss. Like the Stars, the Avs are a tough draw but there's ample reason to think the Wild can compete with them...fans feel that.
Wilds 4th line has been excellent so far. Great mix of top level young talent and vets. The Wild have more size and muscle than in most past years too. Kaprizov and Hughes are known studs...but Boldy has risen to be one of the best clutch players in the league, and Faber the same on the D side...but on any given night multiple others have shined.
I cant say which way it will go..the Wall of St. Paul might be the key... .but looking forward to watching!
