The Wild Have Played Themselves into the Playoffs

The Minnesota Wild have been playing like a different team since the turn of the calendar, or perhaps they’ve returned to being the franchise record-setting team from last year. Yes, they are still resembling a bit of a roller coaster giving up terrible 4-3 overtime losses to the Arizona Coyotes or getting shellacked like they did recently against the Dallas Stars. A deeper look at the numbers from before and after New Year’s Day shows that this team has actually turned a corner though, and that’s great news for the team and its fans.
