A few apologies before we begin. One, I am sorry, but you will not find any Crosby links in the Walk. So, if you were looking for those, you won't find them here. In fact, I thanked my lucky stars today as I remembered that TweetDeck has a global filter available and simply removed all references to "Crosby" from my timeline.
The other two are on the lateness. Turns out I fell asleep while writing this at 7:30AM. Insert boring Wild hockey joke here:____. Then, when I got up, the network wouldn't let me in. Ah, well. Here it is, and it isn't even much to talk about. With the NHL squarely focused on one story, no one else was paying much attention to the rest of the league.
No matter what, the stories about the Wild today are actually of pretty solid quality, so enjoy them.
