Wilderness Walk for 12-4-2010: Game Day Edition

by BReynolds on Dec 4, 2010 10:30 AM CST in Wilderness Walks

Back-to-back games in the NHL are killer. Back-to-back games that involve travel are brutal. Back-to-back games that involve travel that is delayed by over an hour and half due to a snowstorm... well, that's just plain mean. This is what happened to the Wild, as they will face Dallas tonight after not getting out of the airport under after midnight due to de-icing delays.

Should be a fun one.

New today comes from some rather random sources. Wild.com editor Glen Andresen makes a rare appearance in the Walk, and an opposition newspaper also joins the fun. You know, just for good measure.

It's Saturday, which means a slow day here at Hockey Wilderness. There is a military Wild fan interview in the queue, if it decides to actually publish. You can head over to Facebook for the Question of the Day, and you can make fun of the picture above. If you are around, anyway.

Enjoy your day, folks.
