It is probably too little too late but the #wild extended their point streak to 5 games (4-0-1) with a 4-1 win over the #coyotes. They are now 4pts behind Vegas and 6 behind the #kings, though both teams have a couple games in hand so...really no margin for error. Still fun to see them winning. #nhl #sports

The Minnesota #wild pull the goalie to go 4 on 3 vs Nashville in OT and score the winning goal. Already having secured 1 pt for getting to OT, and needing every point they can get down the stretch, the Wild took a chance and it paid off to secure the 2nd point. Wild currently sit 6 pts out of the final wildcard spot so, as I said, they need every point they can get. Will other teams start to copy this strategy? #nhl #sports

#timberwolves roll again, 101-90 over the #jazz, even without ANT. 14-4 and tied for the best record in the league w/ #celtics. It was such a good night even the #wild won their 2nd in a row. Next up the #hornets on Saturday. #nba #sports

After losing last night my guess is the #wild need 9 out of the last 10 pts to win the Central. 8 pts will lose a tiebreaker. Definitely doable but going to be tough. #nhl

#twins stay perfect, 11-1 over the Marlins. #wild give up the tying goal in the final minute and lose in a shootout, 4-3 to Vegas. #mlb #nhl Can't say I didn't see it coming for the Wild. They need KK back in a big way.

Two huge games in the #nhl tonight. #wild at Vegas. Dallas at Colorado. Can the Wild keep it going? 1st place in the West?

The #wild take the ice tonight with a chance to take over 1st place all by themselves for the first time all year. They are at the #flyers, who have been struggling. Can they keep winning without KK? #nhl 4-1-1 since the injury...

#wild win with 1.3 seconds left in OT. Take down Devils 2-1. Unbelievable. New Jersey hit the post with less than 10 seconds left, big carom to Boldy who went in alone and finished. Somehow the Wild keep winning. First place. #nhl

Kaprisov out 3-4 weeks with "lower body injury". Good news/bad news. Not out for season, but this is the stretch run and he's the only real scorer the #wild have. Gotta hold on til he gets back. #nhl
