TIPSHEET

KNOW THIS: Chuck Fletcher, above, didn't waste much time being bold in his new role as Flyers GM. It took him only two weeks on the job to fire his coach.

WATCH THIS: It's mid-December, but it feels like every Wild game has playoff implications. You're probably used to that, though. Sharks at Wild, 7 p.m., FSN.
