Konopka is the best.
Weber and Suter are still friends and Suter talked to Legwand daily during training camp; I expect Weber to come over and chat for a bit during warm-ups. I don't expect any fireworks between the two whatsoever, and I wouldn't expect anything of the sort from anyone else really. Maybe if Tootoo were still here.
Exactly. lol I hope for this too. Pred fans want Weber to level Suter so we sure as heck want our guy to defend himself. Thus, Suter should get to Weber first. LOL

Yeo says Backstrom will start tonight vs Preds.

Konopka loudly during large Suter media scrum before first game vs. #Preds : "They didn't want ya Suts, didn't want ya." #MNWild
So apparently the Wild have created a new in-arena concession monstrosity called "Uff Da Nachos," in which they fill a replica helmet with nachos and then ladle Tater Tot Hotdish on top.

I'm going to the game tonight and won't have time to eat beforehand. Knowing this thing exists will be a test of just how much I hate myself.

NJ's first line was Parise-Elias-Kovalchuk if I'm not fully mistaken.
That looks absolutely disgusting.
What's that on top of the nachos?
E: Guess that's the Tatertortosasd thing.
Great GDT.
Is Mason really starting for NSH?
Didn't look too appealing to mee either but you never know. Could be delicious.

E: Guess that's the Tatertortosasd thing. What's it like? To me it seems like somesort of, what we here call "jauhelihakastike", minced meat sauce.
You can't be a Minnesota fan and not know what Tater Tot Hotdish is!
It's basically Minnesotan for "casserole", but with the specific caveats that:
- It always includes cream-of-something-or-other soup as a binding agent
- It always includes a lot of starch
- It always includes leftovers of some sort
Commonly found at potluck dinners in Lutheran church basements.
Here is the recipe on file with our US Senator: http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2011/01/26/taconite-tater-tot-hot-dish/
Tator tot hot dish.
It is tator tots, potatoes kind of like hash browns if you know what those are, mixed with ground meat, typically cow or turkey, and mixe with vegetables. Mostly corn, peas, green beans, and possibly carrots. Then you've got cheese and some cream-of-vegetable stuff that holds it together. I have never really paid attention. Its just delicious.
Thanks. I wish I could find it somewhere here.
Growing up dirt poor, there were a few staples that I could get a lot of... for little cash.
Processed Cheese.
Elbow Macaroni.
Tater Tots.
Today... I hate Mac N Cheese, "Goulash"*, and Tater Tot Casserole. I can't even stand the smell of tatertots.
*Elbow Macaroni + Tomato Sauce + Beef
Even in College, I couldn't eat that crap without getting nauseous. Instead, I had a rice cooker...
