The Minnesota Wild picked up a 4-0 win over the Anaheim Ducks but it may have come at a price as Jonas Brodin left with a lower body injury and did not return. The Wild and Ducks were scoreless through 1 period before Ryan Hartman scored his 18th goal of the season to make it 1-0. Goals by Jon Merrill, Kirill Kaprizov and Jake Lucchini backed Filip Gustavsson, who was making his first start in five games. Gustavsson stopped all 27 shots he faced en route to his 18th win of the season. Jonas Brodin took an awkward hit along the boards and did not return to the game. The Wild play Los Angeles tomorrow night on the second night of a back to back.

Probably gotta make it official I suppose:
Merril is no longer the worst player on the team. That distinction now goes to Jojo because he does absolutely f-all on the ice in a game.
Good from Gus
Marat and the Coasters. I mean Cmon Hynes. Go grab a Helmet U don’t want to Hurt that Soft Shell Pea Brain.
I wasn't familiar with Stankoven before he came up. Probably not a Wyatt Johnston level talent (who I expect to flirt with point-per-game numbers as soon as next season), but should be a nice replacement for whichever "big-time" player moves on or retires next.
Sunday Podcast? DB and Seth Locked On? Or a different Podcast?
Bombadir and Mcclean can not Develop players in Iowa. HUGE PROBLEM
Beckman w Rossi or Marat. Now that’s an idea. Stankoven is used properly. Shooters w Playmakers. Who Woulda Thunk
I didn't watch, but I heard Brodin got hurt (again). Wild surge a 22.1% of making playoffs. Keep in mind folks, 3 more points doesnt automatically mean the Wild are in playoffs. You have to usurp the teams ahead of you, not just tie them in points.
