Its all about the quest for 16. \u00a0The team that wins 16 games in the playoffs will be the ones that are hoisting the Stanley Cup at the end of what will be an epic struggle over the next two months. \u00a0If the beards haven’t started yet, they soon will and each team will probably resemble a crew of a World War II U-boat; pale, beaten up and weathered. \u00a0Wayne Gretzky<\/strong> once said that he didn’t know what it took to win a cup until he lost in his first attempt as he walked by the New York Islanders’ locker room and saw what their players were willing to endure to win hockey’s ultimate prize. \u00a0Ice, painful moans and even broken bones won’t stop players from their quest and its part of what makes the Stanley Cup Playoffs the best in sports.<\/p>\n

The Minnesota Wild and the St. Louis Blues will be forced to push their team to another level. \u00a0Players will will have to demonstrate more selflessness and personal sacrifice to will their team to a victory. \u00a0Each game will exact a heavy toll, so which club will come out on top in game 1?<\/p>\n

1st Period Thoughts<\/span>: \u00a0The sellout crowd was loud and energized as the Wild took the ice and Minnesota certainly seemed to feed off the energy. \u00a0The Wild were working pucks deep and flying around on the forecheck and applying all kinds of pressure on the Blues defenseman. \u00a0Minnesota appeared to be committed to trying to generate chances from in close and the Blues had to dig deep to keep the Wild from blitzing them early. \u00a0I thought the Mikko Koivu<\/strong>, Erik Haula<\/strong>, Mikael Granlund<\/strong> line looked dangerous. \u00a0A few minutes into the game, Haula stripped Jordan Schmaltz<\/strong> of the puck and he’d race in on a breakaway but his backhand bid was denied by Jake Allen<\/strong>. \u00a0The Blues were just playing rope-a-dope knowing full well Minnesota was going to be pouring it on offensively. \u00a0After those first few minutes, the Wild seemed to step back a bit and they seemed to settle for shots from the perimeter. \u00a0Even on the power play the Wild were settling for the perimeter chances and without any traffic near the Blues crease it was of little threat to actually find the back of the net. \u00a0Allen had little trouble with these opportunities. \u00a0The Blues finally put their first shot on goal after some forechecking pressure of their own as Ryan Reaves<\/strong> forced an ill-advised pass from Mathew Dumba<\/strong> that went out front of the Wild crease that forced Devan Dubnyk<\/strong> to make his first save of the game on a Scottie Upshall<\/strong> attempt. \u00a0Minnesota seemed to slow its game down and that make it easier for the Blues defenseman to deny passing and shooting lanes and the Wild had a real tough time creating any kind of offensive pressure. \u00a0 Minnesota’s best chance in the latter half came off perimeter chance by Nino Niederreiter<\/strong> that Allen stopped but he’d give up a rebound that just hopped over the stick of Chris Stewart<\/strong> who had a gimme of a goal in his sights. \u00a0A late period holding the stick penalty by Parise gave the Blues a power play but Minnesota’s penalty kill was rock solid, forcing St. Louis in the perimeter and breaking up passing lanes and clearing the zone repeatedly to keep the game knotted at 0-0 going into the 1st intermission. \u00a0Not a bad opening period, but they need get back to that forecheck that worked so well.<\/p>\n

2nd Period Thoughts<\/span>: \u00a0The Wild had good energy to start the 2nd period, and they re-establish the forechecking pressure that looked so good early in the 1st. \u00a0The Blues were on their heels as Minnesota stormed in the St. Louis zone and Jake Allen found himself fighting off a variety of chances. \u00a0Jake Allen started to feel the pressure and he started giving up rebounds which should’ve meant the Wild would swarm the Blues crease but inexplicably we’d start settling for shots from the perimeter. \u00a0With Minnesota voluntarily taking their foot off the gas a turnover in the Wild zone gave some time and space to Vladimir Sobotka<\/strong> who wired as shot that got a small deflection off Christian Folin<\/strong> and Dubnyk couldn’t glove the shot and it fluttered in. \u00a01-0 Blues. \u00a0Minnesota would try to answer back but the Blues made it tough to generate shots from the middle of the ice. \u00a0Back to back penalties would put the Wild even more under the gun, but Minnesota stepped up its game on the penalty kill and seemed to gain energy from the challenge. \u00a0Minnesota did a fine job of getting into passing lanes and pressuring the puck carrier and forcing turnovers and even managed to create a few shorthanded chances in the process. \u00a0After the successful back-to-back kills the Wild went on the attack and Jason Zucker<\/strong> was like a man possessed. \u00a0He raced into the Blues end and then after failing on his solo rush kept hustling and got set up brilliantly by Charlie Coyle<\/strong> but his backhand bid was blocked aside by Allen who then made an even more incredible glove save on Coyle. \u00a0Minnesota was buzzing and doing just about everything right but lighting the lamp. \u00a0Minnesota outshot the Blues 16-6 in the period but the Blues had the advantage where it counts most.<\/p>\n

3rd Period Thoughts<\/span>: \u00a0Better late than never, but more on that later. \u00a0Minnesota seemed to be drawing back and again settling for the perimeter shots that were fairly routine saves for Allen and all too often the Wild had little or no traffic in front and when they did have a player nearby it was the simple flyby that made for a minimal amount of pressure on a rebound bid. \u00a0The Wild did ramp up the pressure after a few minutes and came dangerously close to cashing in as a point shot was stopped by Allen but Minnesota would storm the crease and it looked like Nino Niederreiter<\/strong> was going to be able to nudge the puck over the goal line only to be stopped by Zach Parise who was trying to sweep it in himself only to fish it out of the blue paint instead. \u00a0Parise could only look up at the Jumbotron in disbelief at his act of charity for the Blues. \u00a0The Wild would try to regroup but before they could renew their assault on the St. Louis end, they had to contend with a Blues attack that nearly applied the dagger to Minnesota as Devan Dubnyk stopped Vladimir Tarasenko<\/strong> on a great chance. \u00a0A few moments later Dubnyk would nearly give a goal away as the puck went off the boards in an odd way and he fell on the way back towards the crease but luckily got some support to sweep the puck out of danger before the Blues could pounce. \u00a0Minnesota would really pour it on the final two minutes; pulling Dubnyk for an extra attacker with over a minute left. \u00a0After a Minnesota timeout to devise a 6-on-5 strategy, the timeout paid off as Koivu set up Parise for a pretty goal from just to the right of the Blues crease with just 23 seconds left in the game sending it to overtime. \u00a0The goal was met with perhaps the loudest cheer I’ve ever heard in Xcel Energy Center history.<\/p>\n

Overtime Thoughts<\/span>: \u00a0Both teams were a bit cautious to start overtime, wary of making the crucial game-breaking mistake. \u00a0After a few minutes of hesitant play, the Wild would start to apply pressure and pretty soon Allen found himself under siege. \u00a0The Wild got their forecheck going a bit, but shots were still hard to come by. \u00a0The Wild were pinching with their defense and they would get caught as the Blues set up a 2-on-1 between Jori Lehtera<\/strong> and Alex Pietrangelo<\/strong> and some great hustle allowed Ryan Suter<\/strong> to get back as he slashed the Blues defenseman before he could pull the trigger and drawing a penalty in the process. \u00a0It was a necessary penalty to take and the Wild penalty kill went to work. \u00a0Minnesota did a great job of denying time and space and clearing the zone and they’d kill the kill. \u00a0A few minutes later Jason Zucker would draw a hooking call on Pietrangelo and the Wild would have a golden opportunity to net the game winner, or so they thought. \u00a0Minnesota moved the puck quickly and they set up Coyle in the slot but as he tried to pull the trigger he’d shatter his stick and the puck would miss wide of the net. \u00a0Sadly that was as close as the Wild would get. \u00a0After the failed power play, the Wild seemed to be gassed and their play steadily faded. \u00a0The passes weren’t tape to tape, but simply area passes with dim hopes of springing someone on a breakaway. \u00a0The Blues weren’t exactly stifling but they probably realized they had a punch drunk Wild out there. \u00a0Tarasenko would pick up a puck at center ice and he’d dangle around Koivu like he wasn’t there and then he’d find a pinching Joel Edmundson with a pass for an easy tap in goal and the Blues would take Game 1, 2-1.<\/p>\n

Iowa Wild Report<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Iowa 3, Milwaukee 2 OT<\/em><\/p>\n

On Sunday, the Charlotte Checkers won their game against Texas which eliminated the Wild from playoff contention for a 4th season in a row. \u00a0Despite the bad news prior to the start of their game on Sunday the Wild played with a lot of pride against one of the best teams in the Western Conference. \u00a0Iowa got going early as they lit the lamp just 49 seconds in as Luke Kunin<\/strong> blazed a shot by Jonas Gunnarsson<\/strong>. \u00a0Iowa would add another goal as Colton Beck<\/strong> stole a puck near the Admirals’ blueline and he worked a nice give and go with Kunin who dished it back to Beck\u00a0who skated in and beat Gunnarsson over the shoulder. \u00a0Milwaukee Head Coach Dean Evason<\/strong> was irate and chewed out his club with a timeout. \u00a0This seemed to refocus the Admirals who began to tilt the ice in their favor. \u00a0The Admirals would score late in the period when Vladislav Kamenev<\/strong> scored his 20th goal of the season after Gustav Olofsson<\/strong> collided with Steve Michalek<\/strong> to cut the Iowa lead to one going into the 1st intermission. \u00a0In the 2nd, the Wild spent a majority of the time trying to hold off a pretty determined Milwaukee attack as they tried to net the equalizer. \u00a0Their persistence would be rewarded as a turnover in the neutral zone by Maxime Fortunus<\/strong> turned into an easy set up on a 2-on-1 for Matt White<\/strong>\u00a0who one-timed a shot that beat Michalek to tie it up at two going into the 2nd intermission. \u00a0Michalek was again busy in the 3rd, but he managed to hold on to send the game to overtime. \u00a0In overtime, Kamenev would lose an edge and the puck and Iowa quickly counter attacked as Alex Tuch<\/strong> raced in and beat Gunnarsson with a little wrist shot off the toe drag to give Iowa a 3-2 victory. \u00a0Michalek had 39 saves in the win.<\/p>\n[youtube=https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NjHDUS0B-zg&w=560&h=315]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
