The Wild defeated the Blackhawks last night in a high-scoring tilt. Will the Blues be able to even the season series tonight?
It is not often that I say this, but Steve Ott had a good game the other night.
His assist, four hits, perfect face off record were all nice to see, but him going after Corey Perry as retaliation for Shawn Horcoff's knee-on-knee hit on Vladimir Tarasenko was the gravy on Ott's mashed potatoes of a night. Do I expect that from Ott every night? No. Am I in agreement with coach Ken Hitchcock's assessment of Ott thus far this season?
