To celebrate, you should probably do a couple things. One, drink your favorite beverage, whatever that may be. Two, call your doctor and make an appointment for a check up. With the way the Wild are playing, you don't need anything else causing heart attacks. It's Movember. The Wild are in first place. Go get checked out.
