Noone is talking about the Minnesota Wild....yet.
Obviously we are lucky to be 4-0, but we look real good this year. Lemaire has always coaxed the maximum out of our meager talent, this year we still have the discipline and the teamwork but now we have skill and speed. We finally have a legit first line with the Slovaks and Pierre Marc-Bouchard has been very impressive so far. Our PP unit has looked good as well...8-23 so far.

It's still early. The Wild had a great start last year too and finished out of the playoffs. They definitely have an improved team this year, but don't expect Demitra to actually play the whole season and you don't have a reliable backup anymore. The Northwest is going to be tight as always though.
