Does anyone outside of the Twin Cities receive the paper at their local rinks? Is there still a youth hockey paper for the northern part of the state?

I guess no one from outside of the Twin Cities receives it. Also there must not be any northern papers like Let's Play Hockey. Too bad as I would like to read something different to go with Let's Play Hockey.
