Preview: Wild get familiar faces back for afternoon battle

Though their schedule has been in flux recently due to reasons more important than hockey, you have to believe the Minnesota Wild players had to appreciate a bit more time to get their minds right after a disappointing weekend in St. Louis that saw them trounced 9-1 and then upended in overtime 3-2 on a pair of late unfortunate bounces. And even though the NHL trade deadline was a quiet one for the Wild, they’ll be welcoming back some familiar faces to the lineup as the Arizona Coyotes come to town for a matinee matchup.
