The Minnesota Wild have made the playoffs in eight of their 16 seasons in existence. Of the seven completed finishes, the team has lost in the first round four times, the second round twice, and made it to the conference finals. Since the team is facing elimination in their next game it made sense to look at how the team has performed in past situations.
Since their inception, the Wild are 10-7 in elimination situations. That record may look good, but it is also deceiving.
