Preview: Wild can clinch playoffs vs. Sharks

Tonight is the end of several notable series for the Minnesota Wild. Firstly, they’ll be finishing a road trip which saw them run through the Arizona Coyotes twice before facing the LA Kings. Tonight also represents the final game against the San Jose Sharks this season, in which the Wild have fared quite well, going 4-2-1 against Team Teal for a .640 points percentage. Finally, and most importantly, tonight is the second night of back-to-back games.

When: 8:00 p.m. CT

Where: SAP Center

TV: Bally Sports North

A strong first period would be the best medicine for the Wild, since their legs will probably begin to fade as the game wears on.
