OK, ready to go here soon. Mike Ramsey’s picture is taped to glass behind the bench for good luck.

By the way, I did a notebook lead for Thursday on the Wild’s optional practices and their genesis. I think it’s real interesting stuff. Basically, it was Brian Rolston’s idea.

Also, Derek Boogaard was pretty funny in giving me the play-by-play in his scream match with Cody McLeod the other night.

Also, check out this Canadian Press story on the Calgary Flames. Every facet of the story could be on the Wild. Not just the obvious about make-or-break time, but the team’s season-long inconsistency. It’s been pretty much the same story for every team in the division — lots of ups, lots of downs.

OK, talk to you after.

Second period starting. Jacques Lemaire giving it to ref Brad Watson for not calling the trip on Skoula, which led to the pretty 3-on-1 Roenick tally.

– I WILL GIVE FOSTER INFO AS WE GET IT. Taken off on a stretcher after 12-minute delay following his being hit from behind by Torrey Mitchell.

Wild’s update: Taken to a local hospital with a leg injury.
