The Minnesota Wild are in first place in the Central Division.
Wait, what?
Yeah, it’s true. Minnesota, with 4 games in hand, not only owns more points in the standings than the Blackhawks, the Blues, the Predators, the Stars, or Jets, but they also have one more regulation win than Chicago.
This lead in the Central could mean very little if the Wild play as loose as they did last night against the Stars. After a 4-0 lead in the first period, the Wild and Darcy Kuemper allowed the Stars to come all the way back to tie early in the third period before Jason Zucker’s heroics.
It truly was a ‘wild’ ride.
I’m going to be skating today for the first time in a year. I’m looking forward to that, and then we should be recording a podcast with some awesome guests lined up before I watch the big game against the Blackhawks.
Sounds like a perfect Sunday.
Today’s music is a song I can’t get enough of. It’s just a jam. I know i’m late to the party, but working in a noisey hub with fans from routers and switches cranking away, I’ve been putting on some tunes as I work. Tempest by the Deftones of the album Koi No Yokan is baller.
