They lost 4-3, but scored two goals with an extra attacker, and with less than a minute to play. It was also Colton's first professional game.

Currently the Wolves are 4 points out of a playoff spot, but have 3 games in hand. They've been on a bit of a slide this last week and half, so hopefully they can right the ship.

Haven't had much time to catch any of their games recently. I might watch the replay of last night's game tonight if there isn't a good NHL game on GameCenter. I was anxious to see Parayko in action.

There just seems to be something missing from that team this year, and I can't help but wonder if it is Jaskin. They just haven't seemed to have the offensive push that they did last year when they really need it.

Nail on the head Mook, as Jaskin is sorely missed in the lineup. Cracknell's return has been welcomed, but it's hard to replace Jaskin's production and overall puck possession. I'm also not impressed with their overall center play, something that Barbashev should help with if/when he arrives.

Pete, I assume you were there. How did Parayko look? From what I have seen of him it looks like his game should translate well to the NHL. Just needs some time to adjust to the speed of the pro game.
