If the actual players of the Minnesota Wild can stay positive after suffering a 4-0 loss in Game 1 to the St. Louis Blues, so can we. There is no reason why this team should not be putting in a true effort and competing hard to even the series and head to Missouri with a 1-1 draw.
The simple fact that almost half of the entire game was played on the special teams — an area where we all know the Wild struggle — it was a doomed start to the first round almost automatically.
