If it wasn’t for Devan Dubnyk in the first period, this game could have gotten way out of hand for the Minnesota Wild on home ice. The Wild then responded in kind to their goaltender bailing them out with a four-goal outburst in the span of 3:28 (franchise record) in the second period to control the game until the final horn. Eric Staal kept adding to his goal total, Nino Niederreiter got off the schneid, and even Matt Cullen got in to action of beating up the Hurricanes.
