Good morning Hockey Wilderness! It’s nearly here. That exciting moment when you can count down the number of days to proper NHL hockey on one hand. That news might be a little bittersweet though as it appears the Wild’s fourth line is no more certain than it was a month ago. Frustration must surely be mounting for Gabby and the rest of the coaching staff as they wait for someone, anyone to seize the opportunity to join the big club. Instead, it seems they are content to let it slip away.
