Boudreau calls out team after loss to Avalanche

Bruce Boudreau isn't wild about his offense.

Following Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Colorado Avalanche, the frustrated Minnesota Wild bench boss told reporters, "I need more from a lot of guys. When was the last time any of us had a multi-point game? You can't win in this league every night 1-0, 2-1."

Through eight games in November, the Wild have scored more than two goals just once. That's a stark contrast from the first month of the season, in which the Wild scored two-plus in eight of nine contests, averaging 3.56 goals per game.

The Wild have dealt with their share of injuries - particularly star forward Zach Parise, who missed six games with a lower-body injury - but it's no excuse for the team's overall offensive game.

As it stands, Eric Staal and Charlie Coyle are the team's only forwards with five goals and double-digit points.

"You got to be able to forecheck and you got to be able to fight to get inside. There's loose pucks there, if you want to score, you got to get it," added Boudreau, who is now focused on preparing his team for Monday's match versus the Dallas Stars.

"There are too many games in this league to sit and get pissed off about a game for two days because by the time you start worrying about Dallas, that's going to be behind you."
