Looking at the Minnesota Wild’s last two games, it’s hard to say they’re not at rock bottom.
But then you remember- there’s 58 games still left to play. Anything can still happen, and things are appearing to spiral out of control.

But once Nino Niederreiter, Mikael Granlund, and Charlie Coyle returned to the lineup, things were supposed to get better.
