If you’re attending tonight’s game, please be sure to bring bottled water to donate to the American Red Cross and its disaster relief efforts.
Where do we begin? Thursday was a good and also very bad day for the Minnesota Wild, who seemingly accomplished the impossible by pulling off a victory in Chicago in a game that ended with the visitors hobbling home with three fewer forwards. This brought the total occupancy of the Marian Gaborik Groinal Memorial Infirmary to five of the team’s top nine forwards. The news didn’t get better yesterday, as the prognoses for the Wild’s most recently wounded were not exactly positive.
