Off a four-day break the Minnesota Wild are back on the road this week starting in San Jose. The Sharks haven’t defeated a non-California team since March 1st when they beat the Colorado Avalanche 6-2, so here’s hoping the Wild can keep that trend going and press their win streak to four.
Some lineup changes for the Wild (per Russo): Luke Johnson will Joseph Cramarossa’s spot in the lineup, filling in for Zach Parise who is still on the COVID list. Johnson will center Nico Sturm and Nick Bjugstad, while Nick Bonino take the right wing spot on a line with Joel Eriksson Ek at center and Jordan Greenway on the left wing.
