The Wild once again scored the first goal of the game, the second and the third. Not half bad.Hockey Wilderness Three Stars
- Cal Clutterbuck (1 G, 1 A)
- Mikko Koivu (1 G, 1 A)
- Owen Nolan (1 G, 1 A)
Questions to Answer
- Can the Wild offense turn around? Umm, yeah. 6 goals ain't bad at all!
- Can this be a springboard to the second half? Let's hope.
- Will Backstrom avenge his only loss to Phoenix? He did, but didn't look great tonight, giving up 3 on 24 shots.
- Can Koivu or Brunette find the back of the net? I'm shocked, but BOTH Koivu and Brunette knocked it home tonight!
- Will PMB ever have a finisher on his line? Yet again, Bouchard is kept off the scoresheet and didn't even notch a single shot on goal.
