The Minnesota Wild tied their franchise best winning streak tonight as they won their ninth game in a row. Zach Parise missed the game as he was sick, so Jordan Schroeder was slotted in to the Wild’s fourth line. The Wild weren’t great tonight as they were outshot 34 to 27, and Devan Dubnyk even looked a little shaky at times. But in the end, the Wild were able walk away from the Bell Centre with a 4-2 victory with goals from Schroeder, Spurgeon, Staal, and Zucker.
The first period started off a bit slow, and the first few shots weren’t taken until about three and a half minutes in by the Wild.
