We don't normally make a habit of talking about the links before the jump here on the Walk, but today, we make an exception.
Either way, the fact that Fontaine is going to miss two games for something that could have been easily avoided, and didn't even take place on the ice, is disappointing. The fact that the Wild organization acted in a bold manner and made a clear statement that this was not acceptable behavior is impressive. It isn't often that Wild fans get to be proud anymore.
Today, be proud of the organization for simply doing the right thing in a difficult situation. Hopefully this is the last time we have to deal with this in such a close proximity.
