The Wild have gotten some much needed rest before the final push for a playoff berth. Now, can they get focused quickly?
Yesterday was a quiet day on the Wild front as the team chose rest over refinement and took a consecutive day off following their mandatory day on Monday. The team has been in the midst of a grueling stretch of hockey as multiple 3 and 4 day breaks at the beginning of the season started to catch up to the Wild, who played 15 games over 27 days including 8 games in the last 13 days and a back-to-back with travel between over their last two.
