The fact Puustinen is still starting in the top PP unit really makes me hope he’s staying up even when everyone’s healthy. He’s making things happen.

The refs screwed up the flow to allow the Wild back in in the 2nd.

At least the power play looks good lately.

They just refuse to defend consistently.

Is this one of those plays where Zohorna was interfered with to make a high stick like we saw with Pettersson and Letang a month ago?

Agreed - not sure how he's getting a sweater over even Hinistroza at this point. Brutal.

They called 4 so they could review because of the stupid rules where you can’t review 2. Despite no one seeing blood.

... and then called 4 because said review revealed no contact.

Step 3... Profit!

He had some space to shoot and didn’t even get it on net. That was bad.

Of course Sully has to replace Puustinen with Carter late in the 3rd. Silly acts like Carter is Guy Carbonneau out there defensively.
