who needs Alphy?

With Daniel Alfredson, the teams #1 LW out of the line up the wild have gone 5-0 scoring 18 goals, almost 4 a game. With that happening while Alfy was recovering from a pre season injury Wild management assume that the team is about to get shut out and go on a losing streak once he reurns. That is always the way, players stop trying as hard and expect the returning player to work magic the first games back.

"While he is ready to play tonight against the Sabers on the road, don't expect him back until tomorrow nights game at home against those same Sabers. Buffalo is off to a rough start but those again are the kinds of games teams that are hot like the Wild sometimes look past and get beat. Buffalo is not that bad a team.
