Minnesota Wild were defeated 5-3 by the Arizona Coyotes Tuesday night at XCel Energy Center, snapping a 10-game losing streak.
In his post-game news conference, Wild coach Dean Evason embarrassed his squad for the humiliating loss to a «fake» NHL team.
«Our whole game sucked tonight,» Evason said. «We got what we deserved. We were just going through the lineup. You go through everybody and it's hard to find a good player here tonight.»Fleury was really pissed himself.
"It was a good team for us to get two points against," he said. "Personally, I just have to be better. I've been giving up a lot of goals lately and its making me mad. But just gotta keep working and practicing hard and go win the next one.""Just overall, I feel like there's always a goal I can have and make it different for the team instead of going to OT or getting behind in there," he continued. "There were some good saves in there, but I can't give up that much and expect our team to win every night. So yeah, just gotta clean that up."
This is NOT GOOD for the Wild a few days before the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
"It could be, I think sometimes when the other side doesn't have anything to lose, they take chances and stuff," Fleury said.POLLCan the Wild get past the first round?
