The Minnesota Wild have turned into a tire fire to heat the cold northern winters.
The Minnesota Wild aren't in a playoff spot anymore. The Colorado Avalanche, whose slow start caused many to write them off for the season, have leapfrogged them, and now the Wild are a point out of the last wild card position. What caused this? A 9-11-6 road record hasn't been helpful; going 1-8-1 in their last ten certainly isn't lending them a hand.
The Blues are having issues too, sure. Their 2.37 goals a game ranks 25th in the league, which is cause for concern (to everyone but the Blues, apparently).
