A Roller Coaster Ride in Denver but Minnesota Wild fail to Win
The Wild traveled to Denver Saturday to face their second straight Central Division Playoff team. Many of the same characteristics and tendencies from the loss in Nashville surfaced against the Avalanche, resulting in a 4-2 loss. We breakdown the game here.
Period One
Stop me if you have heard this before. Less than five minutes into the game, Mats Zuccarello would take a hooking penalty on Matt Duche-
*ahem* Sorry, that was game one.
Mats Zuccarello would take a hooking penalty on Tyson Jost. Not even thirty seconds into the penalty, Nathan MacKinnon would skillfully interfere with Jonas Brodin, open up a shot for Mikko Rantanen, which he would bury.
