After a cold week of polar vortexes and no Wild hockey, things are starting to heat up.
The Minnesota Wild have been idle (at least on the ice), but that all changes when their bye week ends tomorrow with a road game against the Dallas Stars, the first of a back-to-back and six games in 10 days.
The Wild entered the break with a key win against Colorado and will get back to action with another critical division matchup, after the Stars defeated the Buffalo Sabres last night 1-0, and now sit a single point behind the Wild in the Central.
