By Aaron Holm -
Greetings and good Sunday to you Wilderness!!! It’s been awhile, but I’m back, steering the ship, now on Sundays. Enough with the celebration, let us get right down to it.
You Minnesota Wild went to 3-0 in the preseason after a 2-1 victory over the Colorado Avalanche last night. Mikael Granlund made his preseason debut last night and got a solid start by scoring a goal and pocketing an assist as well on the evening. Same teams again tonight at 6 pm central time, this time in Denver. Probably a safe bet most of the guys you saw out there last night will not be out there again tonight.
In the ‘Why can’t we have nice things?’ department, Zach Parise has been sighted skating with the team as well as on his own. Parise hasn’t played a preseason, it seems mostly out of precaution. Although with the news surrounding Sam Bradford fans in Minnesota might be a little skeptical these days of the old injury report.
You guys like mashups right?
