The WIld played an interesting game in Tampa Bay last night. The last five minutes of regulation almost killed me, I swear. I had to start resort to my girlfriend's dorky deep breathing techniques to keep going, it was terrible.
The perfect musical number for a Sunday with a lot of news about hockey children.
