Of course, something you would do well to remind yourself with, is that the Wild, although playing a team that was not all there, did what they were supposed to do. They beat up a team on the ropes right now, and it's not that they a have been slumping as the just finished up a 5 game road trip last night where they secured 6 points. It's the schedule and the injuries but the Bolts are still a good team who were put in a tight spot last night.
When the Bolts get their shot at revenge on November 22, you better believe they will be a better team. We will be in their barn, and they will be healtier. They may even have Hedman back by then so look for them to be a much more focused adversary a few weeks from now.
So after the game last night my wife, mother-in-law and I were sitting around chatting. We didn't even bother changing channels. So Becoming Wild came on and I was barely half paying attention when I noticed this little bit.
Today's musical selection comes to you with a heavy heart. Yesterday, the music world lost a mammoth. Jack Bruce, the bass player for Cream, Manfred Mann, and a laundry list of other acts stretching from the early 60's till today, died at the age of 71. He was simply put, a legend of his time.
