I will ask now, since I may not have time tonight. The Wild play the Devils tonight, one of the worst teams in the NHL. If the Wild should find a way to lose tonight, I ask you, will you please stay away from bridges and cliffs? Thank you in advance.
Yes, the Wild head to face their old coach, hopefully for the last time. It still amazes me that Lemaire continues to show up behind the bench.

As it sits, this is where you will find the coverage from the Pioneer Press. We have no idea why they do not release the news the day it would be relevant, but it is their right not to do so. Thus, "Yesterday's Headlines."
