Well, a night after scoring three goals and collapsing in a loss to the Dallas Stars, the Minnesota Wild once again demonstrated their inability to score enough goals to win hockey games Wednesday night. Which has become a broken record with the team at this point.
It was actually a very solid first couple of periods for Minnesota, as they were able to generate scoring chances and seemed to keep the St. Louis Blues from getting too many high-danger chances themselves. Although that changed in the second period when Sammy Blais put a wrist shot from the faceoff dot past Devan Dubnyk — a goal that Dubnyk would probably want to forget about.
