It's no secret that the Wild have had difficult times finishing games. Just in the past week alone, the Wild have gotten off to good starts in three of its last five games, but have let the game get away from it. And when I say, "good starts," I mean a start in which they carry the play and own puck possession even if a goal isn't scored. To say that it's all an effort-level thing is a bit of a "lazy" (see what I did there?) narrative.
Don't tell a player that they're loafing around the ice.
