Wild year-end winning streak to 3 games with victory over Avalanche

There were some pretty goals, some pretty plays, and some dominant shifts in Thursday’s 4-3 win over the Colorado Avalanche. In the end, Minnesota needed a reversal of a reversal to wind up with the “W” when the game clock hit 0:00. Jason Zucker, Nate Prosser, Nino Niederreiter, and Mikael Granlund found the back of the net in the win.

It took just ten seconds for the Wild to get on the board. Zucker chased down the puck that was deflected into the offensive zone. His speed allowed him to take advantage of Calvin Pickard’s fumble behind the net, and Zucker was able to wrap the puck in.
