    That is incredible considering some of the hockey dynasties from over the years didn't even achieve that.

    In most any other season the Wild and Kaprizov would be the top story, but not this year. And Winnipeg has no scorer in the top 10, just strong players up and down the lineup and no visible weakness (and, of course, god-quality goaltending). I know it's very early in the season, but I think the winner of the Winnipeg/Minnesota playoff matchup will win the Cup. And please don't tell anyone in Dallas I said that.

    This is for you @thisistheshow - Jim Rice was actually a pretty good player.

    Dallas was the better team the other night.

    The problem with the Wild is they are a 2 man team (with a few other pretty good players) Gustavsson is playing out of his mind right now and Kaprizov is accounting for about half of the offense, if not more.

    If either one of these guys gets hurt or goes into a slump, it will be a disaster.

    I don't see the Wild as being an elite team yet. They have a chance to do something in the playoffs if the team is healthy, but how often does that happen?

    Kaprizov's numbers are outstanding now that he has been playing with a good center! He's the BEST all around player in the NHL.

    Winnipeg's goalie is superb!
    The rest of the team is very solid.
    Wild dominated play early, but seemed to get frustrated when they couldn't score.

    I’m having a drink with the guy who told me before that they might trade Thrill. I’ll punch him in the gut and never doubt you again Joe.

    Hopefully it’s gonna stay cold enough after this week to get my rink up for winter.

    Thank you.

    Wild ownership has stated they will NOT get outbid for Kirill. I don't think they would dare trade him.

    There have been rumors that he might want to leave if the team doesn't compete for a championship, but the future is looking bright with some highly rated guys in the minors.

    No one expected them to play this well this year.

    Gustavsson has been unbelievable!

    I do. I grew up watching the Admirals and in the NHL I followed the Northstars (MN). I've been blessed to live in a hockey-town USA here and without having a "home team" I adopted the Wild when I was in college. Funny story though since this thread started about the Jets -- I think they were the team we thought we were going to get for a while... I remember having to learn and recite the "state of hockey anthem" for my fraternity... "we were raised with the stick".
