Recap: Wild unlucky in loss to Blues

This was a game the Wild deserved to win.

Per MoneyPuck.com, they controlled most all of the advanced metrics, registered 30 shots on goal, and saw good performances from many of their skaters after a wilting effort on Friday night. They even scored on the power play, which should be enough for this club to win on any night.

Unfortunately for the Wild, the St. Louis Blues were able to tie the game after both of Minnesota’s goals. Part of the reason for this could be that while both teams notched 30 SOG, the Wild found themselves laying more hits and blocking more shots than the Blues.
