The weekend before Christmas, malls are full, families are stressed, children are playing and sports are playing. This is a loaded weekend for sports in general, but particularly scarce on the Minnesota end. The Vikings just came off a 33-26 win over the similarly floundering Washington Redskins, in essence removing themselves from having the first two picks in the NFL draft. I'll put up a game recap of that as soon as I can.
Meanwhile, the Minnesota Wild have cooled down considerably since their hot start, losing their last 6 games. They still maintain an lofty position in the standings thanks to their quick start (Yes, it was that good.) Most of the pundits and experts are attributing this to the loss of 5 forwards and both of their goaltenders being a bit rusty after coming back from injuries. But fans are growing a bit antsy after losing such a comfortable margin in such a short time.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are coming of an undefeated preseason, a first for the time I believe. Kevin Love looks pretty content to stay in Minnesota and the team seems to be relatively focused. Of course, they have yet to experience a loss and there hasn't been any true pressure on the team yet. Also make sure you take a peek of the NBAXmas event on TV this entire afternoon and evening.
