Hey, Wilderness!
You like the Minnesota Wild and hockey, right? Good. That actually works out pretty well, as we've got stories concerning those topics here.
On to the Walk!
Wild News
The beginner’s guide to #MNWild analytics part 1: Christopher Walken presents Corsi and WOWY | Hashtag Hockey- Bob does his first article of his rebooted website with a great Fancy Stat 101.
Tending the Fields
The Team of 18,001: Top 10 Prospects: #10 Raphael Bussieres- Magic Bus gets his profile from Giles. Magic Bus is big, has some skill, and could maybe even make the team out of camp, so you'll want to read the article and check out the video.
Nick Seeler Is Heading To The University Of Minnesota- It's been rumored for days, but it finally got #CONFIRMED (presumably by Eklund, or HockeyyInsiderr) that Nick Seeler will join the Gophers, and will not be eligible to play for them this upcoming season. Weird. He must have really not liked the University of Nebraska-Omaha.
Off the Trail

The Often Forgotten 1994 NHL Lockout- Grantland- It's been two years since the NHL has had a lockout, so you probably need to get a lockout fix.
