There pulled in his last start when the wild played up in Nashville I believe that was in late November wild beat the pr 61 that night very early in John hein’s tenure works his way down the boards tied up by gagoski trennan plays back to the line Lazard along shot and it’s

Covered by Guston interesting start to the game Andrew Bernett who asked to anounce first with his players on the ice and they score a long shot from the line is deflected may have been a high stick the officials will discuss take a look at it yeah and this is the play

Right here it’s it’s it’s got to be underneath the crossbar m is no question about that one right There I don’t think they were going to look at this one here very long but something to think about here Anthony here’s the ruling after a video after video review the call in the ice is confirmed no goal the puck was struck with a high stick above the

Cross his first two line rotations were his third and fourth lines Baldi with a shot perhaps trying to force John hein’s hand to say or it took him a little bit a while to get them into the rotation Rossy dumps it in from Center for Minnesota Rossi fights for the loose

Puck no back knocks it into the corner goes between the legs for zukar back up high gagoski bagoan winds in fires and that’s deflected wide Rossi dumped at the side of the net trennan controls gives to Gana to Shen for a shot that deflects wide nearly two-minute shifts for four of the five

Wild players on the ice right now and guson passes on the chance to get a whistle a wrapper on try goes right through the crease sends it across to mermis and here comes Middleton to Center tries to fight by a check good roll fires and a kick save by Soros that

Opportunity that Freddy goodro just had 30 seconds ago might have been the best opportunity the game between both teams O’Reilly throws one off the pad of gustofson has it poked Away by Smith nist carries in nist centers O’Reilly to the backand and a save by gustofson Evangelista spins away from his check

Out to the line Fabro yosia Drive save gustofson Novak tried to tuck it in on the rebound and bagoan with a strong play able to knock the puck against the end boards Philip Guston with a big save keeping this game even 0 if you’re on the bench you’re talking

About him not being able to swallow that puck Rossi back to COV he fires saved by Saros didn’t look like Saros was confident where he had the puck but he did in fact have it Frozen the game remains even 0 after sorrow stops COV yeah I can’t I can’t wait it’s going

To be amazing those Folks up there in warro they’ve their committee has done an unbelievable job we had a chance to go up there this summer little golf event you can just feel the buzz up there they are they are ready for us and back for Baldi his pass for capriso

Deflected But Eric s able to recover BDI with it again Works to the middle a shot and a save by Sorrows opportunity here just B to dance the defenseman MCD to get the inside ice and Eric went ready 22 left in the power play as gagasi starts out from behind his

Neet the seiz part and he carries in he has Rossy with him and he fires rebound kicked out by Soros Rossi digging away and Soros is able to get the whistle where’s everyone going okay I’ll take this ice and I love how he gets the puck

On net and then tries to follow up that’s the key right there nice play Here by golosi and again not handling the puck clean Soros Novak still with it poke checked Away by bagoan Novak to MCD shot and a save by guson zuk Carell back to Faber toov all

The way across zarell moves in Centered for Baldi and a kick save by Soros zuk Carell cut off by Yosi remember mcdunn one of their better penalty killers in The Penalty Box Faber across to zukaro moves in back to Capri off a shot he [Applause]

Scores Eric s being tipped it on the way it’s a power play goal in the wild have the lead a few times this time he changes it up hangs on a little bit more gets the puck out front there to Krill capris off and yes this puck definitely

Gets redirected right off of the shaft of the stick by Eric and slides by UC SOS and or right off the shin pad it looked like it caught it off the uh the Sha but that definitely hit a shin pad on the way and again he looks a little shaky as he

Hangs out to the puck no you don’t want it right now if you’re Jake Middleton keep your gloves on well he’s looks like he’s going to go after him McCaron Aaron and Middleton dro the gloves in the corner two tough customers right there and I don’t know if Jake Middleton

Really had much of a choice it looked like McCarron wanted to jump from there a PR off minus you know 10 12 to start the season oh there’s a there’s an elbow and a penalty coming got to be careful here ban ban will drop the gloves yeah he

Goes after Smith who was already going to take the penalty for the hit on Capri sov you mentioned it earlier ban was careful not to go after glass when he was going to be called for a penalty elow he comes into the screen right here there’s the elbow into the

Head right there that one was initially called and then Smith and then ban comes over here let’s see if they’re going to look at this now they I mean they’re looking at each other they both look like willing combatants Anthony if you’re looking at the replay right there but and 5 minutes for

Fighting Minnesota penalty number 24 has 2 minutes for instigating they do call the instigator against ban the other end it would look exactly the same the wild only have given up 15 shots here the wild have done a nice job defensively around the front of the net

As well just not a whole lot of real estate Fred’s just starting a trip they have two stops left they’ll go to Edmonton and Ottawa before they head into their break trennan across Carri a in and he scores krier beats gustofson over the stick side shoulder and Nashville has tied it

1-1 player here jumping up into the Rush Plays with uh Roman Yosi here and just is able to slide on the backside miscommunication coming into the zone and just an absolute laser beam up over the blocker get a great look right here I think Gus thought for sure he was

Shooting glove side able to roll his wrist over and beats gusts into the Fabro a shot blocked by Felino NIS had his shot go off a skate Yosi with the long shot that sails wide Fabro got it through to O’Reilly out to the line they score Yosi

With a shot it was tipped on the way and it’s 2-1 Nashville the Predators scored twice in the blink of an eye here early in the third getting the pocket to the top here to Roman Yosi who’s got an absolute bomb and I don’t know if that one was

Redirected on its way in here’s the shot right here yeah it is slightly deflected like Kier got a piece of that one and O’Reilly lugs it back the other way veteran centerman Cup winner in St Louis hands it off in the corner to Nyquist back to yosia shot and they

Score it changed Direction on the way and Guston fooled by it it’s 3-1 Nashville Zone and their Top Line who scored the second goal throw the puck here on the net it looks like it catches a part of Faber as this Puck comes in here Roman Yosi able to get the puck

Pass Capri off right here yeah gets caught up in Brock Faber’s Jersey flutters through his jersey lot of game but he got pulled in that game so you knew he was going to bounce back Faber couldn’t handle it cleanly it’s a chance for Nashville Evangelista with with a redirect and

Gson makes the save seconds apart to take a 3-1 lead or 2-1 lead early in the period Then they stretched it to three almost faded four Baldi out to Faber zuk carello fire save Soros rebound loose in the circle strong side that may have played a role right

There while they’re able to come up with that [Applause] puck D stays put Baldi and he scores and the power play goal has Minnesota back within one don’t go anywhere folks where he was able to walk inside and he danced the same player mcana this time he gets

Inside and he beats yussi Soros on the far side earlier in the first period SOS was able to get a Blocker on it not this time Wild win it again but this time zuk Carell has to work down the wall his shots blocked and Cleared
