That's Wild
- The Minnesota Wild were on top of the world and heading into Western Canada, which features some not-so-great hockey teams. Well, after earning that feel-good 1-0 shutout win over the Edmonton Oilers, they dropped two straight to the Calgary Flames and the Vancouver Canucks, two of the worst teams in the whole league. And suddenly, the whole team is looking a little sluggish. [StarTribune]
- The Wild could have up to 11 Olympians on their roster right now, and what Michael Russo is hearing about Kiefer Sherwood interest, in his latest: [The Athletic]
- Jesper Wallstedt suddenly looks a little human over the weekend. [Pioneer Press]
- Jonas Brodin deserves his flowers for truly bouncing back and being the glue that holds the entire blue line together here. [Hockey Wilderness]
Off the trail...
- Alex Ovechkin can pass Gordie Howe as he hunts down more all-time greats this season. [NHL.com]
- It's every insider's favorite trip: The Board of Governors meetings. Well, if they are in Florida and not Colorado like they are this year. Anyways, the biggest concern coming out of these meetings has to be the size of the Olympic rink. [Sportsnet]
- Terry Ryan was a first-round draft pick of the Montreal Canadiens and infamously flamed out. Well, now he's starring in Shoresy and living out a different sort of hockey dream. [ESPN]
