The Wolves Owned All 4,700 Basketball Squares

by John Wilmes

Minnesota's defensive effort in Game 2 was a transformative sight. In what appeared to be an effort to become one with their team name, they swarmed, smashed, hounded, snarled, took, and destroyed for 24 straight minutes to start the game. Not an inch of the court was safe.

We grabbed Drake for a year. He will bring grit leadership and toughness. Not my first pick, but it will work. I would still like one more forward tho.

I don't like it, reminds me of a poormans Kris Draper. Just a vetern leader but do we need yet another with the countless playoff expirence we have?

I dunno XBL, it isnt that bad. He will prolly play with someone like Maltby about 10-12 mins a night. I dont see how it could hurt us.

I still think we need to sign another Forward still. How do u feel about Yashin?

Great talent **** attitude. Sort of like the Bonzi Wells of hockey. There is no way I would sign him unless it's dirt cheap like under $1.5 million.

Drake is a grinder nothing more I would rather use that money and sign a potential guy and try to see how they work. We have a great coaching staff who could help them along.
