Dissecting a Gophers basketball meltdown; Wild (and Kaprizov) try to find their game in Sweden

Introduction: Host Michael Rand watched the closing minutes,
appalled like many other viewers, of the Gophers men's basketball
team's 70-68 loss to Missouri on Thursday. Poor execution, costly
mental mistakes and questionable coaching decisions were all part
of the swirl that saw Minnesota cough up a 20-point second-half
lead. 9:00: Star Tribune Wild beat writer Sarah McLellan joined
Rand from Sweden, where the Wild are preparing to play a pair of
games this weekend. It's an opportunity to show off their heritage
for several players, but it's also an important time for the
struggling Wild to turn their season around. 31:00: An English
Premier League team received an unusual penalty, while a Vikings
future opponent suffered a key injury.
