Former Twins slugger Tom Brunansky is one step closer to the big leagues. He's been named the new hitting coach for the Rochester Red Wings, the Twins' Triple A affiliate. Last year, Brunansky held the same post in Double A New Britain. "Bruno" was a key member of the Twins' 1987 World Series team.

The Minnesota Wild host perennial powerhouse Detroit Saturday at 7 p.m. The Red Wings will look to earn a fourth-straight win, while Minnesota aims for two in a row. Wild goalie Josh Harding will make his first regular-season start in 568 days.

When will the Timberwolves reach a .500 record? It's been a long time since they've had a record that good this deep into a season. Reaching that point again will rely on more poise and execution on the court, and less concentration on actually reaching .500.

It was doomsday in Detroit on Friday as the Red Wings rocked the Wild to the tune of 6-0. Josh Harding allowed all six Detroit goals before being pulled for Matt Hackett in the third period.

The Red Wings came into Minnesota on a three-game skid. The Wild made it four-in-a-row with good goaltending.

The Minnesota Wild came from behind to beat the Red Wings 2-1 in overtime last night in Detroit. Mikko Koivu tied the game at one with one minute left in the third period and he assisted on Devin Setoguchi’s game winner in overtime.

Police are looking for suspects that broke into the Red Wing Pottery storage facility and stole thousands of dollars worth of donated pottery items. The items were for use during the organization's children's program at their annual convention.
