Tonight’s Thunder vs Timberwolves matchup at the Target Center has all the makings of a classic. It’s a rematch of last year’s Western Conference Finals, and both teams are currently jockeying for position in a wide-open West. The Thunder (38-10) have been the team to beat all season, led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s MVP-level scoring and Chet Holmgren’s presence in the paint. They’ve hit a few bumps lately, but with Isaiah Hartenstein returning to the lineup, OKC looks ready to reclaim its do...
Things did not look good for Minnesota Wild goaltender Jesper Wallstedt at the end of the first period on Tuesday night.
He had given up three goals, and the Wild were down 3-0 against the lowly Chicago Blackhawks. A save on a Connor Bedard shot in the second period that almost trickled past h...

The Dallas Mavericks returned from a long layoff to face the Minnesota Timberwolves on the first night of a back-to-back. Without Cooper Flagg (ankle injury management) and Klay Thompson (left knee soreness), the Mavs lost 118-105. Let’s get to the grades! Max Christie: C- 9 PTS / 4 REB / 1 AST / 1 STL […]
The Dallas Mavericks lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves 118-105 Wednesday night in Dallas. It was a weird, disjointed game that saw Dallas trailing by double-digits for most of the second half, but never letter Minnesota pull away. It was an ugly game, with lots of turnovers, fouls, and missed shots. Dallas started feisty, like they […]
The Mavericks fell to the Timberwolves in what was easily one of the most tedious and disjointed games of the season. Dallas was led by P.J. Washington’s 21 points, Naji Marshall’s 18, and Brandon Williams’ 17, who was forced into a larger role with Cooper Flagg sidelined. Minnesota countered with 31 from Julius Randle, 23 […]
Game Story Wednesday evening was just another game for the Minnesota Timberwolves where their opponents, the Dallas Mavericks, were missing the majority of their rotation players. The number one overall pick, Cooper Flagg, was out for just the fourth game of the season. Joining him on the sidelines was Kyrie Irving, Anthony Davis, Klay Thompson, […]

The Minnesota Wild should target Robert Thomas from the St. Louis Blues to improve their center position. Also, they should target Jordan Kyrou, who hasn’t taken a step forward after scoring 70 points last season. He has only 24 points in 42 games, which puts him on pace for just 41 points. That dro...

The Blackhawks lost a game last night. I really like this paragraph from Mark Lazerus’ postgame for The Athletic after accounting for Minnesota’s three-goal comeback:
None of those was a ghastly, unforgivable miscue by the Blackhawks. The Wild are just good. And they fought back. Sometimes that’s just how it happens. Hockey’s not always a zero-sum game.
Earlier this morning I wrote about the idea of “good losses” for the Blackhawks right now. This roster will undoubtedly evolve i...

After he has had a somewhat unexpected surge in production this season with 35 points in 49 games, winger Marcus Johansson is able to make his Olympic dream come true. As Team Sweden suffer a boatload of injuries to almost every position, Johansson, along with Bruins blueliner Ha...
As winter weather melts away in North Texas, the Mavericks return home to face a Timberwolves squad still figuring out its own identity. Despite injuries and inconsistency, Dallas has shown resilience — often finding ways to compete when it matters most. Tonight offers another chance to test that resolve against a top-tier Western opponent. Let’s […]
For weeks, the city of Minneapolis has been under occupation by the murderers, kidnappers, and rapists going by the moniker ICE. Two protestors, Renée Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, were openly murdered by ICE agents and smeared as aggressors by Donald Trump and his administration. Unsurprisingly, the billionaire owner of the Twins, when asked to […]
The Blackhawks blew a three-goal lead and ultimately lost 4-3 in the shootout to the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night in St. Paul.
Everything started off well enough for the Hawks, as Teuvo scored just over a minute into his first game back from injury for a quick 1-0 Chicago lead:

If you were wondering how the new-look top line would do for the Blackhawks, they scored the game’s first goal only 79 seconds into the game (on their first shift). The Hawks then proceeded to out-skate the Wild for most of the rest of the opening period, and doubled their lead almost 14 minutes after the first goal. Chicago took a 14-8 shots on goal advantage and 2-0 score to the room after 20 minutes.
You knew the Wild were going to push back in the second period, and they did. The next...
As the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex emerges from its three-day winter standstill, the Dallas Mavericks (19-27) get back to regularly scheduled basketball programming on Wednesday, when they host the visiting Minnesota Timberwolves (28-19) at American Airlines Center.

Hot on the heels of adding to their pitching depth with Cooper Criswell entering the fold, the Mariners have made a small move to bolster their options on the other end of the battery.

Jesper Wallstedt is exactly the kind of goaltender you keep and build around, not the kind you move for a short-term fix, and the Minnesota Wild are in a rare position where having two legitimate starters could be the backbone of a deep playoff run.
