Heading into the Minnesota Wild’s game on Thursday night against the Edmonton Oilers, here are some of the things we thought we knew...
Man, that Eric Staal collision looked pretty bad. He’ll probably miss time. Nope, not only does Staal miss zero games, his goal and assist were key for the Wild against Edmonton.
The Wild looked lost against the lowly Anaheim Ducks, so they’ve got zero chance against the first-place Oilers. Nope, the Wild beat the Oilers for the second time this season.
