We love the sport of hockey and how it can rewarded teams that did not really deserve to get anything but absolutely nothing out of a game.

Well, the Minnesota Wild were big-brothered by the New York Rangers, getting outshot by 11, out attempted by 41(!), outchanced by 16, and finished with seven fewer high-danger scoring chances than the home team. If you don’t want to read into a bunch of numbers, then just know that the Wild got killed and should not have earned even the one point they did from this eventual 4-3 shootout loss.
