Yes, really. The second game day edition in a row. Best part? There will be another tomorrow. None of which are on TV. I hate the preseason... such a tease. Hey! Here's some hockey, but you can't watch it. Of course, tonight's game is at home, so hopefully all of you are down at the X blowing the place up.
Today's Walk is a hefty one. Plenty of things to read and have some fun with. We have video, more fun with previews, and hockey fans being, well... disgusting racist pigs.
Be prepared for a roller coaster of emotion. After all, this is the Walk.
Note: There likely will not be a Walk tomorrow or Sunday as I attend to my brother's wedding. Apologies in advance.

1. Why should you trust the Wild defense? Five returning starters in the top six, all of whom are defensively sound.

Off the Trail
First, the cool news.
The NHL looks to be issuing a video explanation for each disciplinary action. We can only hope they also include there for non-actions. The transparency of the process is improved by this.
And, the really disgusting news.
Ontario fan throws banana at Wayne Simmonds in shameful racist display | ProHockeyTalk - What a joke. Whoever threw it, you need a serious timeout on an island full of flesh eating ants.
