Devan Dubnyk Proving Capable of Carrying Wild on Deep Run After Stellar Game 5

The Minnesota Wild goaltender was lit up for six goals this week in Game 4 of the Western Conference showdown against the St. Louis Blues.

Those nights, however, have been rare this season.

We’ve also seen what Dubnyk has meant to the Wild since joining a floundering team eight points outside of the playoff race midway through the NHL season.

To say he single-handedly pushed them into the postseason would be unfair to a roster that boasts more depth up front than a number of other teams still playing, and an underrated defensive group led by one of the best in the league in Ryan Suter.
