ST. PAUL, MINN. — Minnesota Wild head coach Bruce Boudreau was musing the other day about the ingredients that go into a good playoff rivalry.

“It’s not a series until you get a hate on for each other and I think that was created near the end of the game,” Boudreau said Friday night after a late game melee capped off a 4-1 Jets win in Game 2 in Winnipeg.

“It’s a rivalry now.”

Yeah, it is.
