Game 1 is in the books and the Minnesota Wild feel like they missed an opportunity to steal one. Here is your Game 1 highlights and reactions.
You can read Hockey Wilderness’s full game recap here. The young guys for the Wild really stepped up and played well, aside from a few mistakes. Jordan Greenway was quite noticeable. Wild.com guy Dan Myers commented multiple times on how Greenway is starting to play a big, as in size, style of game. Joel Eriksson Ek may have taken a big hit trying to single-handedly kill a Wild penalty from Dustin Byfuglien, but he was easily one of the best players on the ice for Minnesota.
