The Colorado Avalanche and Minnesota Wild squared off for the first time this preseason, and you weren't able to watch it. The Avs lost to the Wild 4-2 in a game where the rosters were as lopsided as the Eifel Tower. But the real issue here is why couldn't anyone watch it? We discuss these ongoing issues the league has in reaching its audience.


We get it though. In the end, it's just a preseason game. And for everyone except the coaching staff, if a pretty meaningless game. So should the preseason be shorter than the 6 games it is now?


Finally, our player preview for today focuses on the one and only Mikko Rantanen. Will his numbers this year rise above last year's? With a healthy team, there's no reason to think they can't.
