It seems like just yesterday the Minnesota Wild were at the very bottom of the NHL standings with a measly 16 points in their first 20 games of the season — not exactly an undeserved position for a club that began the 2019-20 campaign with a 1-6-0 record.
Over the last month, though, the Wild have been playing like a team with a chip on its shoulder. In fact, one could reasonably claim they’re playing well. Perhaps even very well.
Minnesota is currently riding a 10-game point streak, which started on the road against the Arizona Coyotes back on November 14.
