Welcome, one and all, to game day. Tonight, the Wild face off against the Canucks, yes the Canucks. Despite the Boogey man being gone, and John Scott being gone, and Darcy Hordichuk being gone, and Alex Burrows hurt... you can bet there will be some fireworks tonight.
Today's walk takes us to some familiar haunts, not all of the friendly. We also ask that you visit the SBN Canucks blog today. It's OK, their actually fairly reasonable over there. If you decide to drop the gloves, follow the code, and don't pick on anyone smaller than you.
Also... caption creation today. You've been killing it so far. Keep it up!
Enjoy the day, all.
Wild News:
Checking line trio aims to beat slump | StarTribune.com - Sometimes, it is good to know that the people who are not doing well at least know they aren't doing well. Now, we'll see if they act to change it.
Illness sweeping Wild locker room | StarTribune.com - Always lovely to have a flu bug run through the locker room. As per Russo's Twitter this AM, Colton Gilles is on his way up from Houston.
Wild players promise a better effort, starting tonight against Vancouver - TwinCities.com - Indeed. Wild players such as Staubitz and Kobasew. I'm certain the team rallies around them.
Enemy News:
Sports - Hockey - The Vancouver Sun - Current Canucks news and happenings from the local paper.
Canucks @ Wild Game Preview: Twisting, Turning Through The Never - Nucks Misconduct - Nucks Misconduct has their side of the preview. As stated above, go visit. They're good people, even if they do live under bridges and eat billy goats.

It still pales in comparison to Luongo’s.
And as I will now be trapped with Canuck’s fan until after the game, that’s the last thing I can say without getting hit.
J/k I do love her dearly….she’s an awesome sister/possible parallel universe version of myself and we’re celebrating her 1 year cancer free mark today!
Woohoo!!
That is certainly celebration worthy.

So
if you see a red-head in a Samuelsson jersey tonight, don’t heckle her too much.
(although why she can’t wear the perfect good Koivu jersey I bought her is beyond me…)
HA! Love to see the opposition getting involved.

Pretty close. It is loosely this…

From Russo's tweets...
It seems like the Wild are a bit of a mess today. Cullen, Havlat, and Schultz are on the ice, but Mikko is sitting out practice (ill), and Kobasew left early sick. Though Lats seems to be skating with Cullen and Havlat…now if he could just put in a complete game effort.
by Krotz the Wall on Oct 19, 2010 12:36 PM CDT reply actions
Yup, seems Lats is back with Havlat... he better not screw this up
With Koivu and Cullen under the weather, I expect the PP to be sub-par.

Check me out on Twitter. I try to keep it Canucks-related, but that's not always the case....

It’s just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right

You bring your knees in tight
But it’s the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane,
