To borrow Tom Papa’s bit from his Out in America segment on NPR:
Have you ever woke up from a nap more tired than you were when you fell asleep?
The Wild has.
Finishing a four-game road trip on precious few hours sleep due to snow and mechanical delays following Monday night’s game in Montreal, the Wild opened their eyes early in the second period to find themselves down 4-0 to a Bruins team who came out flying early, taking advantage of their road weary competitors. Alex Stalock was the unfortunate recipient of the bleary effort in front of him, as the Wild struggled in all aspects in the shutout loss.
