By Aaron Holm -
A reunion is underway for star Minnesota Wild forward Zach Parise as he welcomes his former team the New Jersey Devils to the State of Hockey. Tonight's game will also be a reunion for Devils defensemen Marek Zidlicky who returns to Minnesota for his first game against the Wild since demanding a trade a couple of seasons ago. I'm not sure how the X will react to his return, it has been so long since he was a toxic curse in the locker room here so if people fail to notice I wouldn't be surprised.
Stay tuned today here at Hockey Wilderness for a full day of game coverage as the Wild look for their 5th win in 6 games.

No supplemental discipline for Ray Emery, who did nothing suspendable according to NHL rulebook | Puck Daddy - Yahoo Sports
Uhg, a disgusting player and even though we might not have a rule in place to suspend him, make something up. Conduct detrimental to the league, or something along those lines I don't care. Any respect I had (which was none) for Emery is lost, any respect I had for their media (which was none) is lost for giving him third star of the game. What, he only let in 1 goal and broke every rule in "The Code" (if there really is such a thing is now seriously in question) so he's worthy of praise? GFY Ray Emery (please don't hurt me).
