Suddenly, you look up, and the Minnesota Wild haven't lost in regulation since the Winter Classic.
The Wild will visit the New York Islanders on a tidy little four-game winning streak tonight. A mediocre team at 15-15-6, the Islanders currently sit comfortably out of a playoff spot in the muck and mire of the Eastern Conference. Hovering around teams like the Philadelphia Flyers, New Jersey Devils and the Buffalo Sabres, the Islanders' point total skews the image of what this team is, having played only 36 games this season due to scheduling and COVID related issues.
