Star Tribune's Puck Drop beat has launched

Every level of hockey, all across the state — from the ponds to the pros — is being covered on the Star Tribune's newest hockey beat.

Exclusive hockey coverage from the Star Tribune is featured in Puck Drop, and we'll also point you from this report to coverage of the Wild, NHL, Gophers and college hockey and boys' and girls' high school hockey. Puck Drop also takes readers to corners of our hockey communities we don't traditionally cover.

The Puck Drop blog is here and the web page is here.

If hockey is your thing, or even if Minnesota is your thing, we hope you check out Puck Drop and join us.
