The Minnesota Wild need to win – for one reason. Clickbait? Maybe, die-hard hockey fan. Trust me, your labour (spelled that way for a reason, foreshadowing for ya) will not be in vain.

The Wild Must Get Cap-Savvy and Bring Brock Boeser Home – Minnesota Wild

Vikings must deal with the future of defensive coordinator Brian Flores
