Wilderness Walk for 2-22-2012

Another long stretch of no games to talk about leaves us focused on... the wall, the ceiling, the snow in the driveway... pretty much anything other than hockey. Unfortunately.

Today's Walk remains short, but it does have some substance to it. Some good reads, and some good chances to learn a few things, maybe spur some thought. Of course, that infers you are all capable of rational thought. Yep. I did it. I made a joke at our readers' expense. It's come to that.

Boredom, they name is me.

If you ever have the chance to go without a computer for a week... don't. Just don't do it. Unless you are vacation, it leads to a week of pure hell with no escape except to actually watch the episode of Dora your kid is watching for the 17th time in a row.

I'll be over there... in the fetal position.

Wild Back At It Tuesday | - Ah, practice. We're talking about... practice.

Mikko Koivu "50-50" to go on road trip | StarTribune.com - Coincidentally, I am 50-50 to do most everything in life.

Welcome visitors | StarTribune.com - It's just Minnesota nice.

Minnesota Wild wait to learn meaning of Sunday's stunning win - TwinCities.com - What does it mean? It means... you won a game. Go do it again.

Offensively challenged Wild | StarTribune.com- Nice little info.

The Team of 18,001: Can I Get Some Love For Chad Rau? - Indeed, you can.

WILD PUCK BANTER: The Nick Schultz Problem - Good read, but with flaws. Looking at the teams that made the playoffs, Schultz would be paid like a 4 or 5 d-man. Looking at the two D-men used as comparisons, they are four and five years older than Schultz. Schultz is way ahead of them.
