Wow last night’s lost to the Winnipeg Jets was not the finest hour this preseason for the Minnesota Wild. The results from the MTS Center was a 4-1 beatdown by the Jets that should have actually been 5-1 if it were not for a mistake by the officials. Sure there were only two lineup regulars that took the ice for the Wild, but it just seems overall the team that did play could have put up more of a fight.
The Wild came out of the gate looking like a team that would not be denied. They skated a very strong first period that saw the Jets overmatched and it looked like they would roll to an easy win.
