Raleigh, NC – Sometimes it’s hard to explain the outcome of a hockey game. Sometimes it’s easy.

In the second half on Thursday night at PNC Arena, the Wild Excellence Carolina Hurricanes 15-7 and had a chance to tie the score in the power game when Frederick Andersen dropping a look every once in a while Marc Andre Fleury Not possible.

The Hurricanes scored three times in short succession—evenly on power, on power play and on time—and that’s all I wrote on the Wild’s three-game winning streak with a 5-2 loss.

“They bury and score goals, we don’t, and you lose games like that,” he said. Mats Zuccarellowho was part of the No. 1 athletics unit that only surrendered Wilde’s second goal of the season and ultimately the winning goal to Teofo Teravainen.

Fleury said it more succinctly.

“Andersen hung out a lot on them, and I didn’t do the same,” Fleury said. “And it cost us.”

After an 0-0 first period, the Wild survived largely due to Fleury despite three penalties they strongly disagreed with and a 10-minute misconduct. Ryan Hartman to express their opinions to officials, Kirill Kaprizov Wild got his 100th career hit by, you guessed it, his partner in crime, Zuccarello.

12 of Kabrizov’s 26 goals came on the power play, and his 100 goals in 180 matches during his career required the third fewest number of matches to reach 100 goals among active players at the back. Patrick Lane (179) and Alex Ovechkin (167).

But less than two minutes later, five Wild defenders were caught on one side of the ice, Poldy died He was arrested for lunch, and Brent Burns He benefited by unchallenged network leadership. He realized that Fleury was without a stick and swept the back between his wickets. Fleury lost the stick in a collision with Hartmann and chose not to take the defenseman Jake MiddletonThe stick because goalkeepers don’t usually like to use a skater’s stick.

But when Burns drove home, Fleury said he was “rotten”.

“Normally, they just don’t break away from playing in the area,” Fleury said. “On a breakaway, it’s easier with a stick. A straight shot, you don’t need it as often.”

After three solid first-period shootout kills, the Wild were 16 seconds away from killing spiky little Freddy Goudreau when Fleury was shown a Brady Skegee shooting. He said he never saw the disc until it was too late. Then, in a power play, Boldi flipped a single disc and Zuccarello gave up a prison break, a strange man escaped from the wilderness. But then Joel Erickson Ek He couldn’t beat Andersen on the team’s third breakaway of the game, the Hurricanes flew out of the area and Tervainen scored his fourth against Fleury.

“Third goal I wish I could stop,” said Fleury, who went into the game 5-2-1 in his previous eight starts with a 2.22 goals-against average and a 0.929 save percentage. “It was a good shot, but I still want to make the save and keep us in the game.”

Last season, wild and Florida panthers He led the league with nine multi-goal wins apiece. This season, oddly enough, they are the only two teams in the NHL No multiplayer return during a season when it was over 80.

Therefore, it felt difficult to recover from a two-goal deficit for the Wild.

Well, as early as three, Jalen Chatfield Made it 4-1 with a shot from the point. Coach Dean Evason challenged that Martin Nicas I got involved with Flory. The NHL Situations Room disagreed, though Fleury still felt after the game that Nikas took his stick and eyebrow out of play.

Fleury said the umpires told him the stick felt like his stick was a little outside the blue crease and that Nikas didn’t do it on purpose, “which I don’t quite understand.”

The Canes got a power play from the incorrect challenge, then five-for-three when Brandon Duhemy He was called for a questionable rough penalty. Nikas capped off a three-point night with a power play goal.

Boldy, battling the last game in a string of tough matches, hit an 11-game drought with his first tally since Dec. 21, but the Wild couldn’t beat Andersen again despite five key minutes and assessed game misconduct. Andrei Svechnikov To examine Duhaime at the back of the neck. Andersen made seven saves in five minutes of power play.

Unable to finish, due to a night of arguing with judges Marc Jouennett and Frederic L’Equiyer, Wilde called it a frustrating defeat.

“There are circumstances that were out of our control, but there are some things we can make the group realize that can’t happen until we give ourselves a chance to win hockey games,” Evason said. “You can say what you want about frustration and anything else, but we didn’t do enough to help ourselves win this hockey game, and they did.”

After the game, the Wild flew to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where they will have their first guest trip since February 2020. Fathers, brothers, cousins, and mentors will join the team for games against the Panthers and Tampa Bay Lightningsit in at team meetings, have a welcome reception on the beach on Friday night and spend Sunday golfing, deep sea fishing or at Gulfstream Park before team dinner.

On Monday, the group will fly from Fort Lauderdale to Tampa, and the team will practice upon arrival. A full group photo will be taken after the training. On Tuesday, guests will tour the J.C. Newman Cigar Company in Ybor City while players, coaches, and staff continue their preliminaries.

Guests will receive custom Wild sweatshirts, a vintage Wild Guest Trip party poster, and a handcrafted glass cigar holder with the Wild 2023 theme.

“Once we get there and get over this loss, it’s going to be nice to enjoy some time with my brother and all the families that come,” Zuccarillo said. “It’s a good way for us to show our families and everyone a part of our world.”

Alex Goligowski dresses for Matt Doumba the Scratched

With defenseman Dumbaa died scratched For the first time since 2016 Although trade is likely to decline, Alex Goligewski He drew to the lineup after being scratched 26 times this season and in 14 of his previous 17 games.

Asked how he would handle his recent string of absences, Goligewski said the athlete: “Yeah, well, I’d say. I mean, obviously I — I want to play, and it’s really frustrating when you’re not playing. At the same time, the team is doing well, so I want that to continue. But I’d like to play more regularly.” “.

Goligoski’s agent, Ben Hankinson, is expected to reach out soon to general manager Bill Guerin to inquire about what’s going on. Goligowski said he had passing conversations with Guérin in which the GM told him to “stick with it, you never know what could happen, keep your head up”.

“But it’s tough,” said Goligewski, who has another year on his contract at $2 million, and would almost certainly concede his immobility if he were to be scratching overnight in Minnesota. “I just want to play.”

The problem is that Goligewski, 37, can still play and Guerin probably doesn’t want to move him, especially with Dumba on the trading block. If Wild Trade Dumba doesn’t get a man back right away, she can time out Goligoski until Guerin can get one. Plus, in the NHL, it’s like the moment you trade a defenseman, two or three get hurt. Behind Goligewski on the depth chart are second-division players Andrej Suster and Dakota Mermes.

Brindmore said Pacioretty, 34, will undergo an MRI on Friday.

“I hope it’s not as bad as we think it is, but I’m not very optimistic at the moment,” Brindmore said. “At the moment it’s hard to be very happy to win when you know what’s probably going on here.”
