I was starting to write about how this game would never end, and that I just wanted to go to bed.
Game 2 is in 2 days, but it's hard to believe they'll top a 3 OT game.
Here are your links.
Veilleux re-signed to two-year deal | StarTribune.com- Nothing to see here, really. A two-way deal is no big financial commitment at all, and he's decent depth.

2013 NHL Awards Watch: P.K. Subban Likely Norris Winner, Ryan Suter Robbed? - Gone Puck Wild- Yes. So very robbed.
2013 NHL Entry Draft Speculation for the Minnesota Wild: Defenseman- I prefer the third guy, as he's more of a two-way guy, but adding some mean into the system for defensemen isn't a bad idea, especially with Suter, Spurgeon, and Brodin to move the puck.
Could The Sabres' Pick of Taro Tsujimoto Happen Today? | The Hockey Writers- I think this did happen. Eero Elo, anyone? But seriously, a GM pulling this would be fired for doing so. There are enough 7th rounders that can be had for at least organizational depth that not taking them seriously would strike many, including me, as unacceptably arrogant and foolish.
