The Minnesota Wild are going on a little bit of a streak, keeping the top spot in the Central Division for as long as they can hold on to it. The latest successful match came in the form of a 4-2 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning. Here’s 4 Things from that game:
1 — The Wild earned a complete win over the reigning Stanley Cup champions.
Even without Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point, the Lightning coming into your building poses a significant challenge. There’s still so many players that earned the right to lift the Cup multiple times and can simply will their way to victories, even if their opponent controls more of the game.
