There’s no doubt the Minnesota Wild are having issues finding the back of the net. As a team the Wild has only netted 4 goals in their last four games. The defense is playing great, and Devan Dubnyk is playing out of his mind. It just seems that the scoring results can’t catch up to the results of the defense.
There’s a lot of searching for the reason behind this power outage, and sure there’s a lot of hypotheses but not a lot of answers. Where’s the consistent scorers that successful teams have? In theory the “goal scoring specialists” in the lineup are there, but right now they are ice cold and some are starting to wonder if they ever should have been labeled that.
