Wild try to move up in wild-card race, extend Ducks' skid |
The Wild (33-27-8, 74 points) and Ducks (23-42-3, 49 points) split their first two meetings of the season, with visiting Anaheim winning 3-2 on Jan. 27 and Minnesota prevailing 2-0 at home on Thursday. Minnesota, sixth in the Central Division, entered Monday five points back of the Vegas Golden Knights for the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference. The Wild are coming off a 3-2 shootout loss at St. Louis on Saturday. Minnesota is 5-3-2 over its past 10 games and is 15-15-4 on the road this season. |

Wild lose Joel Eriksson Ek at a bad time, again |
Last April, the Wild lost Joel Eriksson Ek at the worst possible time. Eriksson Ek has missed Minnesota's past two games and, while the Wild are expecting him back before the regular season ends, the team will play at least two more games without their top-line center. “He's rehabbing, and getting treatments, things like that,” coach John Hynes told reporters after a practice Monday afternoon at the Ducks' Honda Center. Last year, Eriksson Ek suffered a broken fibula when he blocked a shot in an April 6 game against Pittsburgh and missed all but one aborted shift in a first-round playoff series against Dallas. |

How Likely Are the Wild To Get Over the Hump and Make the Playoffs? |
Hello Minnesota hockey faithful, and welcome to the first annual “Where Will They End Up” forecast of our local professional hockey team. For some background, I've been doing this for a while now. I'm attempting to determine where the Minnesota Wild will end up in the standings, regardless of if they make the playoffs. Who could they face in the first round, or where's the highest they could pick in the draft? Will they get past the first round? (A seemingly daunting task for the home team.) Or who might be available to them when they pick? (Spoiler alert: at the rate we're going, we're not picking first overall. Sorry to all those Macklin Celebrini hopefuls.) This very scientific and methodical |

Ducks appear powerless when playing short-handed |
The Ducks' flock grew larger and more powerful with the returns of forwards Leo Carlsson and Max Jones ahead of their welcoming the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night. During a four-game road trip, the Ducks surrendered 10 power-play goals, eight of which came during the third period. |

Kucherov, Bedard and Fleury named NHL three stars of the week |
Tampa Bay Lightning right-wing Nikita Kucherov, Chicago Blackhawks centre Connor Bedard, and Minnesota Wild goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury have been named the NHL's three stars of the week. Kucherov led the league with seven points (two goals, five assists) in two games, bolstering the Lightning's playoff prospects with victories over the New York Rangers and Florida Panthers. |

Vladislav Firstov Coming To Iowa |
One of the more interesting Minnesota Wild prospects is coming back to North America to continue his development. Winger Vladislav Firstov, a second-round pick from the 2019 NHL Draft, has officially been reassigned to the AHL's Iowa Wild after his season over in the KHL finished. Before heading back to his native country, Firstov signed an Entry-Level Deal with the Wild, so he was technically just loaned out to the Russian league for him to get into the professional game after finishing three years at the University of Connecticut. Smattered throughout his transition from leagues, Firstov did actually appear for the AHL Wild for a handful of games in two different seasons. |

Wild will take point, but lament lost opportunity in St. Louis |
The Wild rallied for two unanswered goals in the third period to salvage a point in a key game in St. Louis on Saturday, and coach John Hynes afterward stressed that he was happy to see his team push back after two forgettable periods. Afterward, veteran Marcus Foligno, playing through a lower-body injury as the Wild try to make the postseason for a fourth straight season, was blunt with reporters at Enterprise Center. “I think it's just a missed opportunity to get two points against a team that doesn't show a lot of emotion,” he said. With a 3-1 victory Sunday at New Jersey, the Knights were five points up, and St. Louis passed the Wild for ninth place with a 4-2 victory at home over Anaheim. |

Blues beat Wild in shootout, 3-2 |
Jordan Kyrou’s goal in the fourth round round of a shootout was the deciding shot in the Blues 3-2 win over the Minnesota Wild on Saturday night at Enterprise Center. Kyrou had given the Blues a 1-0 lead in the second period with a power play goal. Brayden Schenn scored 27 seconds into the third […] |

Kirill Kaprizov leads Wild in goals and points, and leading the way for rookie Marat Khusnutdinov |
As if Kirill Kaprizov hasn’t been doing enough to keep the Minnesota Wild in the NHL playoff chase, the star winger was given another job this week. “Good driver,” rookie Marat Khusnutdinov explained. “Free taxi.” It’s actually more than that as the Wild have relied on Kaprizov to help ease the transition from Russia to the U.S. for Khusnutdinov, a second-round pick in the 2020 entry draft who ... |

PWHL Minnesota piles up points at home by shutting out Boston |
With four consecutive home games this month, PWHL Minnesota hoped to bank some valuable points in pursuit of a playoff berth. At the midpoint of that stretch, it's collected five of six points possible. Wednesday's 4-0 victory over Boston extended Minnesota's win streak to three games, including the first two in the homestand. Kendall Coyne Schofield, Michela Cava, Grace Zumwinkle and Taylor ... |

John Shipley: Wild have few trade options, but maybe Bill Guerin will surprise us |
In 2006-07, the Minnesota Wild finished the regular season on a 12-1-1 run to secure the Western Conference’s seventh and penultimate playoff spot. That’s a heck of a run, 25 of 28 total possible points. It also helped that the Wild started the season winners of 10 of their first 12 games, earning them 20 points by Nov. 2. You can do the math on what happened in between. The point is, it ... |

Souhan: Kaprizov & Co. need to get Wild out of this rut |
Let's stop trying to put lipstick on a puck. The Minnesota Wild are mediocre at best. That's an easy conclusion to reach this season if you look at the standings. That also might be the correct general impression of a franchise that is again spinning its skates. This season, the Wild ranks 11th in a 16-team conference in which two of the bottom teams aren't even trying to win. The Wild's goal ... |

10 things Minnesota sports fans need to pay attention to this week |
One of the great joys of doing a daily sports podcast at the Star Tribune is the chance to talk once a week with columnist Patrick Reusse. While preparation is still important for a show with Reusse, there is a certain amount of comfort in knowing that even in the slowest weeks the content will not suffer. That's just the nature of a meandering conversation with Patrick. Still, I was struck ... |
