Wild 3, Kings 1: Wild steamroll Kings
Photo by Bruce Kluckhohn/NHLI via Winning streak now sits at five games A 3-1 game might not register as a ‘steamrolling’ for most, but this was as close as it gets.

What will the Wild do when Stalock returns?
Photo by John Cordes/Icon Sportswire via Minnesota’s suddenly deep stable of netminders will make for a very crowded roster in the near future File this under “a good problem to have”, but the Minnesota Wild will soon have all of their goaltenders back and healthy - and some difficult decisions on where to put all of them. Kaapo Kahkonen has been more than holding down the fort, backstopping the Wild to four straight wins on the road with a .945 save percentage.
