The Wild reversed their recent trend of losing to last-place teams with a shootout win against the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night, holding on and earning two points with their 3-2 victory. Desperate for a better result after less-than-stellar efforts against then-cellar-dwelling Red Wings (Atlantic Division) and Flyers (Metropolitan Division, not to mention the entire NHL), Nino Niederreiter and Eric Staal scored for the Wild in regulation, and Jason Zucker potted the only shootout goal to earn the victory against the Kings, who currently have the fewest points in the Western Conference.
