Good day, Wilderness! Are you all still anxiously awaiting draft day like I am? Don't worry, it's only a little over a month away now, so your wait is almost over. Some of my Wild shirts are soon going to see a little bit of love again before the preseason starts. Ready for today's Walk? Get your hiking gear on, and let's hop to it.
Wild News
Wild Increase Ticket Prices For 2013-14 Season - Gone Puck Wild - Surprise, surprise. No matter where you go, you just can't avoid the raising price things. If this keeps happening every season, it's going to be tougher and tougher for a lot of people to come out to Wild games. On the bright side, the Wild were 10th in the NHL for attendance, bringing in over 450,000 fans to 24 games.
Dany Heatley: Is His Time With The Minnesota Wild At Its End? - Rant Sports - It could be. He had to miss the last month of the regular season (as well as our short-lived first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs), and he only picked up 21 points in 36 games during the regular season. Not exactly the performance we expect from someone with an giant $7.5 million salary cap.
Harding looks forward to offseason of training - KTTC - He should be. His stunning performance against the Hawks (despite the Wild's loss) was just surprising to everyone. Let's hope his training this off-season can transform him into an entirely different animal this next full season.
