Lots of hoopla about a new Krispy Kreme returning and opening in the area today.

I'm so old I remember when they came to the metro the first time. Same hoopla.

Welcome back. You never should have left.

Someone asked me how they could get kids excited about reading.

My millennial brain: A personal pan pizza. 🍕📕

Scrolling feeds/stories and seeing photo after photo of the beautiful Northern Lights really makes for the best kind of scrolling.

Always remember to share your Lights, friends.

Northern Lights out.

Hundreds honored the 29 men who perished aboard the Edmund Fitzgerald in a ceremony along the North Shore marking the tragedy’s 50th anniversary.

The historic beacon at Split Rock Lighthouse, which the famous ship passed on its final trip, was lit for the occasion.

FINAL: Wild 2, Flames 0

SOG: 35-19, Flames

It's a 35-save shutout for Jesper Wallstedt. He pumps his right arm in excitement as the horn sounds.

Goals from Boldy and Kaprizov (ENG).

Kaprizov with an empty netter for a 2-0 Wild lead with 49.3 ticks left.
November 10, 2025 at 3:38 AM
Flames net empty with two minutes to play in a 1-0 game.

Wild back to the power play with under four minutes to play in the second period.

Matt Boldy makes it 1-0 Wild with 6:13 to play in the second.
November 10, 2025 at 2:26 AM
Still scoreless with 7:03 left in the second period.

If I had to guess which game would be 0-0, this one or the soccer game yesterday... and it's the exact opposite.
November 10, 2025 at 2:24 AM
Calgary's Matt Coronato draws a penalty but then negates it four seconds into the Flames' power play with a high-sticking call.
November 10, 2025 at 2:19 AM
First power play to the Wild after the Flames have too many men on the ice.
