The Minnesota Wild picked up a 5-2 win over Arizona in their final game before the NHL Trade Deadline. The Wild scored the first goal of the game on Kirill Kaprizov’s 30th goal of the season on the Power Play in the second to give the Wild a 1-0 lead. The Wild thought they had a 2-0 lead thanks to Jake Lucchini, but the goal was waived off as it was found that Lucchini was offsides. The Arizona Coyotes took a 2-1 lead on goals 7 seconds apart to start the third period. Zach Bogosian tied the score with his second goal of the season. Joel Eriksson Ek scored his 29th goal of the year to give the Wild a 3-2 lead. The Wild scored two empty netters thanks to Brock Faber, his 5th and Connor Dewar, his 10th to seal the scoring. Marc-Andre Fleury dominated early on, and finished with 23 saves on 25 shots to pick up the win. The Wild play Colorado tomorrow night at Colorado for their next game.

If nothing else, I admire the stones on MacFarland for trading Byram away. Wouldn't surprise me if he becomes a perennial Norris candidate, though it also wouldn't surprise me if he didn't. I certainly wouldn't have done it, and not for Mittlestadt in this or any other universe.
I also don't see Guerin pivoting to a Fleury/Wallstedt tandem.
Rossi was horrendously bad. Real test tonight, the Avs aren't an AHL team, like Arizona is. If Gus Bus gets the start, won't be pretty 😂
MAF kept the Wild in this game. Fantastic performance with great anticipation and athletic execution. I would have liked to see that shot from Hartman go in. Rossi needs to start burying his chances.
Pat Maroon traded to Bruins.
Nic Petan traded to the Rangers for Turner Elson, a left shot LW, 31 yrs old. a nothingburger trade honestly.
Connor Dewar traded to Maple Leaves
Denny, I would like to know what you would do,if you're the Gm from top to bottom ?
