Practice has started at Ritter Arena, with Chuck Kobasew watching from the stands.

  1. FYI, it's Ridder Arena, not Ritter.

  1. Krejci is living large with those two sides of beef on either side.

  1. Nah, it's Ridder as in Knight-Ridder, I think... Hint for the B's.: If you can't win in regulation, you pretty much will be able to wrap it up in OT/SO. Backstrom is hopeless when it comes to SO, although he seems to be better than last year. Meanwhile, Manny for sure can do the S-O, should he start. The Wild also have lost most of their key S-O players and Manny knows all about Butch's Spin-O-Rama move. Meanwhile, the Bruins offense looks pretty amazing so far. Jury is still out on the Wild offense. Koivu, Bouchard, Sheppard, Veilleux and of course Gaborik are solid,
