GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Since the Minnesota Wild put their three leading scorers together last week, the new top line of Eric Staal, Mikael Granlund and Jason Zucker has piled up a remarkable 11 goals and 15 assists in three games.
For coach Bruce Boudreau, this line might be a keeper.
For Arizona, this line must be kept off the scoreboard if the Coyotes -- still last in the NHL, but improving -- are to win for the sixth time in eight games. The Coyotes play host to the streaking Wild, winners of five in a row, at Gila River Arena on Thursday night.
