After their five-day break, the Wild will finish the season in a whirlwind with 23 games to play in 41 days (including 4 sets of back to back games) before the playoffs begin. The team has positioned itself beautifully to this point, putting distance between them and the rest of the Western Conference which will help to minimize the damage of any stumbles.
Every point gained up to this point will be critical given the grueling schedule which lies ahead of the team. Although the team will not let themselves think too far ahead, we as fans can look ahead all we want.
