Quoting: Missouri
Do you even watch hockey? This is so foolish to throw away Minnesota's top 5 players to LTIR!!! Thumbs down this sucks.
You aren't a true Wild Fan!?!
It's accurate of the current state of the Wild team:
Coyle- broken leg bone, 6-8 weeks minimum recovery time.
Nino- high ankle sprain, 3 weeks minimum recovery time.
Foligno- broken face bone, possible to play in a week or so with a birdcage.
Granlund- groin pull, probably out until the end of the month.
Parise- back injury, he's been listed as day-to-day since the preseason and hasn't played a game yet.
The Wild's schedule is so odd to start the season, that LTIR to start the season would mean a player wouldn't be able to play until Nov 1st. They don't play their 5th game of the year until Oct 21st (this upcoming Saturday). Their 10th game will be on Halloween.
