After 48 games, Iowa and Chicago are tied for 2nd in the division following the Wild’s 4-1 win tonight

DES MOINES, Iowa - There was a great crowd in Wells Fargo Arena tonight for the Local Heroes game, but there was certainly no loved lost between Chicago and Iowa who have had their fair share of tillys in the last few seasons - both on and off the ice.

Niklas Svedberg (13-9-3; 2.56 GAA/.916 SV%) got the start for the Wild in net and continued to show that he has the hot hand between the two netminders battling for minutes. The Sollentuna, Sweden native made 29 saves on 30 shots en route to the game’s second star.
