from the AP via the West Central Tribune,
The mothers of 17 Wild players proudly accompanied their sons as the group left Minnesota on Friday for three games on the West Coast. Last season, the team invited the fathers on a trip.
“She’s very excited. Last year, when the dads got to go, she was very jealous right from the get-go,” said right wing Mark Parrish of his mom, Barb.
The mothers gathered for photos at the arena in the morning before the plane left for Phoenix, where the Wild face the Coyotes on Saturday night.

The Sharks did something similar last season, it is truly a great way to reward the parents. “Grandma Cheechoo” got a standing ovation, it was some good stuff.

What a cool way to reward their moms for all the long hours at the rink when they were kids. I forsee a lot of cringing in the stands during the game, though.
