Last time we assessed the five game pace, we figured the Minnesota Wild needed a lot of improvement.
We also sussed out that the team needs a minimum of 5.8 points per five games or a better average to have if they want to compete at the top of the Central Division would be the Nashville Predator’s last season pace of 7.13 points every five games.
In the first five, the Minnesota Wild was good for just 4 points; nowhere near the pace needed to even crack the wild-card spot.
This second set of five games however, we’ve seen a completely changed team – suddenly they’ve woken up and gone a perfect 10 points across the five game spell.
