New kinds of lifeless: Wild muster 13 shots in shutout loss to Blues
Sadly, this one could've been even worse.
The Minnesota Wild's mid-winter losing streak grew to seven games on Saturday afternoon, as they offered minimal resistance to the NHL's best home team, falling 4-0 to the St. Louis Blues.
The Blues took an early lead, scored twice in the middle period, then held on during an ugly third period to keep the Wild reeling. And it wasn't the usual suspects for the Blues doing the damage, as a pair of their goals came from players who previously hadn't scored this year.
Goalie Josh Harding , routinely rumored to be trade bait, was the only thing that could pass as a standout for the Wild, stopping 30 of the 34 shots he faced, and denying Patrick Berglund on a second period penalty shot. The Wild blocked 21 Blues shots.
In the other net, Blues goalie Brian Elliott had a quiet afternoon, facing only 13 shots by the Wild, six of them in the final two periods.
"We started OK. The first period wasn't bad," Wild coach Mike Yeo told reporters afterward. "We came out flat in the second period and once it was 2-0 we didn't respond the right way."
Thankfully, thesaurus offers several synonyms for "lifeless" as without them, describing the recent efforts of the Wild would be a greater challenge. Among the options available are "barren," "comatose," "empty," and "sterile" - all of which are helpful in capturing the essence of the Wild in games like this one.
Losses, like the hard-fought shootout defeat at the hands of the Jets on Thursday, can still be a source of inspiration. And then there are days like this one, where it seems the only thing missing was a press release officially announcing the start of "playing out the string" mode.
Yeo admitted to a reporter after the game that his team giving up worries him, "big time."
"There's a bigger picture here," he said, seemingly asking for patience and reminding people that he's still had less than a full season to mold the team into the form he wants. "We're still developing our culture.
