The press release uses "Wild" in singular form throughout. With that in mind, read it with an "a" in front: "A Wild leads" would be correct.

To me, "Wild" is a plural, but in all Wild press releases, they treat it as a singular. Like fingernails on a chalkboard for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I don't get all the ink cops on here? This is a message board. As one example, the GF Herald has it's share of ink errors, probably not worth the effort to triple proof everything? Let auto correct, spell check, grammar correction, calculators, internet, texts, spread sheets, scanners, emails, fax machines, computers, cell phones, clouds, printers, cameras, and etc. help you get you through the day and then go enjoy the ball game?

MafiaMan Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Point is, BWSE, "Wild" is about as dumb a nickname as there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sioux rube Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 The most impressive thing recently is the Zucker-Staal-Granlund line having 26 points over the last three games. That is nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you're not in on the joke... I tend to let it all slide, but like to pick on an "ink cop" when one makes an incorrect correction (MM, in this case). BTW, Ink Cop will now replace Grammar Nazi in my vocabulary, so thanks for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was afraid we'd get round two of ol' flat foot (Vanek) when he was available this trade deadline, but happy to see him shipped somewhere else. Not a goofer, but I'm still not sure why the Wilds sent Stewart packing, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a goofer, but I'm still not sure why the Wilds sent Stewart packing, though. All about freeing up salary for Kunin and hopefully signing Greenway when his season is over at BU. Loved Stewie but he just took to many games off for Budreau to keep him in the lineup consistently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
