We here at Hockey Wilderness always strive to bring you the latest in news surrounding the Wild, and the NHL (where necessary). Sometimes, this winds up an extremely painful exercise. Such as today. What the hell are we supposed to tell you? Puck Daddy has eight stories a day, Back Hand Shelf has five, and the entire SB Nation NHL team accounted for 70.
If those numbers don't mean much to you, you should try stepping into my shoes for a day or two. Usually there are 1000+ stories to read on any given day. Now? Less than 100 in most cases.
While my reading assignments are down, it makes the Walk rather difficult. Not that any of you care. I'm just telling you. I miss reading about hockey. Enjoy your day.
