It's game day once again. The Wild are coming off a solid 2-game win streak with their 3-1 victory over Edmonton Thursday night. Now, they're trying to hold on and win their third game in a row as they take on the Calgary Flames tonight at 9. The last time these 2 teams met, it ended with a 2-1 shootout victory for the Wild. Let's keep this momentum going! In the meantime, enjoy perusing today's links:
