I was up in St. Paul for the Wild season opener on Saturday night.
There's a lot of discussion that the Houston Aeros will relocate to Des Moines at the end of the season. This has been talked about for a few months here, but this is the first time I've heard anything that has real legs.
Good for the Wild. Good for Des Moines. Good for a regional association with an NHL club.
