Lee and I got together on Monday night to divide up our Wild season tickets. We already have a game to go to this Saturday. Wow. The season came here fast.

Even though it's just a preseason game, it'll be nice to get into the arena, see the ice, and watch a game after such a long absence of the NHL. Plus, it's a great time to watch the Wild's prospects and other players trying out for the team before the regular season starts. I remember last season Matt Foy made his debut in a preseason game with the Wild. He looked like he had some good skill and a lot of potential, but never made it on the roster. I'm excited to see him again, and young guys like him trying to make an impact.
