By Christopher Boyd -
After a day off after the worst loss in recent memory, it's time for the Wild to get back to work today. They have a day to prepare before the Shorks come to town tomorrow. Signs indicate the San Jose-ians might be without their star Jumbo Joe, though I'm not sure the Wild are that lucky.
With that, it's time to get to the walk. The musical selection of the day fits with the theme: WAKE. UP.
Before that, though, stick taps are needed for Capgeek.com, which has officially ceased operations. We wish Mr. Wuest all the very best.
Also, make sure you read Russo's piece on Zach and JP Parise, but grab some kleenex before you do. Wishes and thoughts, folks.
