The Minnesota Wild officially clinched a postseason berth with a 5-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks Thursday night at Grand Casino Arena. The Wild improved to 42-21-12 with the win, and overcame a 2-1 deficit with 4 unanswered goals in the second and third periods. Matt Boldy scored his 39th and 40th goals, Kirill Kaprizov added his 40th goal, Ryan Hartman scored twice to back Filip Gustavsson, who recorded his 100th career win as a Wild goalie. Quinn Hughes recorded his 46th assist as a Wild defenseman, which is a franchise record for a single season assists. The Wild now head on the road for two games this weekend, as they now play out the final 7 games of the season to see if they will host the first round or head on the road against the Dallas Stars.

Cheers🎉
Love ya Seth. I thought Bobby brink deserved a point in this game? The yurov Tarasinko line was really good
NoJo WILL skate line 2 through the playoffs. Senko will continue to be under utilized/misused. I'll put $100 bill NoJo lives on line 2 in 2027.
Awesome Wild talk as always! Thanks Seth.
The amount of Vancouver fans wishing physical harm on Quinn before the game was unsettling. These fans are unhinged. No wonder he wanted to leave😮
У нас есть шанс обойти Даллас в таблице или нет ? Чтобы иметь преимущество домашнего льда .
The stats say Vancouver had more hits than the wild. They might have but from what I saw, the wild hits were done at a more important time for the team.
Now its the true test. Getting past round 1.
Hi Seth, regarding Jessi Pierce. I am a season ticket holder on the club level. I saw Jessi walk through there many times over the years and always thought I should say hi and let her know how much I appreciate her work. I never did. I always decided to just leave her alone and let her do her job. I very much regret it now, people should know when they are appreciated. With that, Seth, I want you to know I truly appreciate what you do and on your show and how you do it. I listen and give a thumbs up to every show and haven't missed one since I found you a couple years ago. I very rarely comment, but am an avid reader of the comments. Seth, thank you for the joy you and your commenters have brought to my life. Rick Shearer
#Clinched……….The rest of the regular season is meaningless so BG should rest Boldy, Ek, Faber, Hughes, Kirill, and Gus……
Also, MoJo's puck possesion skills and Ozone entries are what keep him on that 2nd line. That allows Ek and Boldy to go to work in the Ozone. It is very underappreciated skill and Seth went thru the analytics during the post-stream with him on/off that line, which was very telling….
I see Guerin going Grit First again so Yurov will be the odd man out, to start….
