Minnesota Wild has their moxie back

Just when I was about to give up on the Minnesota Wild, they got their act together. The Minnesota Wild beat the Might Ducks who are one of the best teams in the NHL on 12/31. The team then totally dominated the Atlanta Thrashers on 1/2, another excellent NHL team. I am not sure whether this little roll is just due to the fact that they are playing at the Xcel Energy Center or that they actually have simply returned to their early season form. Whatever it is, I am glad that they are back and playing like we all had hoped that they would play this year. It can't hurt the morale of the team that Gaborik is rumored to be returning to the ice later this week. It feels like the Minnesota Wild has gotten their slump out of the way. I have a warning for the rest of the NHL: Look out for the Minnesota WIld!!!
