It doesn’t always come as easy as it did tonight. The Minnesota Wild appeared to be the much better team for most of the game against the Winnipeg Jets and it showed up in the score, as they walked away with a 4-1 win.
A complete team effort with Sam Steel, Mats Zuccarello, Frederick Gaudreau, and Jared Spurgeon all notching two points each. And just to add to the feeling-good-about-ourselvesness, Filip Gustavsson was given the start after the holiday break and stopped 31 of the 32 shots he faced to extend his excellent season.
