The Capitals are looking to build on their current four-game winning streak as they take on the Wild tonight.
The Washington Capitals (39-9-4) continue their road trip through the Central Division tonight in St. Paul, where they take on the Minnesota Wild (23-20-10). Both teams are on opposite trajectories, with the Caps winning games as a historic pace including their last four, while the Wild have lost six consecutive games.
In fact, the Wild have lost 14 of their last 17. They’re basically the Montreal Canadiens of the Western Conference, with a horrendous record since the new year arrived and a head coach in Mike Yeo who has kept his job despite their abhorrent win-loss record of late.
