Before the season began, Wild goaltender Devan Dubnyk said he looked forward to a campaign in which he wouldn't have to start 39 straight games, as he did last year.
And yet in a Thanksgiving Eve game that begins a string of three games in four days, Dubnyk is set to start a 12th straight time, and for the 18th time in the Wild's 20 games.
By the end of Wednesday, only two goalies were expected to have more starts -- one of them the goalie opposite Dubnyk, Vancouver's Ryan Miller.
"It's fine by me," Dubnyk said.
