Every game is a big game now for the Wild, who need to win three of every four games in order to really solidify a playoff spot. Since the arrival of Devan Dubnyk, they’ve collected seven of a possible ten points. That’s not a bad start on a very difficult task.
Get your full breakdown of tonight’s game in the GPW game preview.
Lineup should be about the same tonight for the Wild, with the exception that the team recalled Matt Dumba and he’s expected to play.
