Disappointing. That's the only word I can find to describe last night. The team seemed poised for a streak, just to let it all slip away. No time to sit around and stew. The Canucks come to town on Tuesday, and that's always a good time. Will we see a Matt Kassian call up for the game? Hmmm... we can only wonder.

Today, take it easy, sit back, and enjoy the Walk. It's mid October, hockey is in full swing, and life is complete again. Even if the Wild aren't winning as often as you may like.

Enjoy your day, all.
