Minnesota Wild Announce February Schedule Change

The Minnesota Wild will be having one of their games moved to an unusually early start time in a few weeks.

The February 20 contest against the Detroit Red Wings that was slated to start at 5:00 PM Central time will now start at. . .I hope you're sitting down. . .11:30 AM Central time, as the game will now be featured as part of NBC's "Hockey Day In America."

According to the Wild, this will mark the first time that NBC will broadcast a Minnesota Wild home game on the network since they took over the NHL's national television rights back in 2005.

So, you know. . .if you had plans to watch the game or, even crazier, had tickets to attend the game, make sure that you adjust your schedules accordingly.
