3 Things: Grubauer steals one for the Avs, as the Wild failed to capitalize on their chances

The playoff push is on. Before entering last night’s important matchup against the Colorado Avalanche, the Minnesota Wild were one-point behind the Arizona Coyotes for the final wild card spot and three points ahead of their Tuesday night opponent. Last night’s game in St. Paul was the most important game of the season to date. The Wild got a stellar performance out of their net minder, Devan Dubnyk. They scored a goal on the power-play and Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen were seemly quiet. Sounds like a recipe for success and the Wild should have been able to snatch two points from their Central Division rival.
