    That's Wild

    • PWHL Minnesota can take home the inaugural Walter Cup championship in a winner-take-all Game 5 on Wednesday night in Boston after having it taken away from them in the dying minutes of Game 4. During double overtime at home, at the X, Minnesota had their game-winning goal called off after some hearty celebration -- and of course Boston came right back in it and ended up winning the game and forcing the one final game. It has been a rollercoaster of a season for Minnesota but we cannot deny that this winner-take-all game will be as good as you can hope for during an inaugural game of a new league. [Daily Faceoff]
    • The main assumption regarding the Minnesota Wild's upcoming 2024 NHL Draft strategy is a preference for defensemen. With most of their prospects on the blue line not hitting the ceiling that most wanted to, they might just try to get a number of defensemen and hope that at least one sticks. Well, maybe they don't have to think about positions after all -- thanks to Brock Faber. [Hockey Wilderness]

    Moose Jaw won their 1st Memorial Cup game 5-3 over Drummondville, so they will finish 3rd and take on the loser of the London-Saginaw game tonight.

    I hate the NBA, but I have always liked listening to Barkley as an analyst. He's brutally honest sometimes with a very good dry sense of humor. I think he would be a fun listen to for an NHL game. I thought he was a TNT analyst. If I were them, I'd give him a shot in the booth with 2 other guys and just see what happens. 

    I'm pretty sure cliches won't happen!

    London beat Saginaw last night to finish 3-0 in pool play. Apparently, there is only 1 semifinal game as London heads straight to the finals on a tidy 8 game winning streak. 

    Saginaw and Moose Jaw play for the opportunity to knock off London tomorrow night. Drummondville can return to the Q territory as they lost all 3 games.
