Recap: Wild start white-hot, hold strong to down Jets

The Minnesota Wild looked as good as they have all season, both in terms of their play and their uniforms, en route to a 6-1 thrashing of the Winnipeg Jets.

Matt Boldy had three points and Filip Gustavsson stopped 28 of 29 shots in what was mainly a dominant performance by the Wild, outside of a rough stretch in the second period. Minnesota outshot Winnipeg 39 to 29, with a good chunk of those 39 shots coming in the first frame.

With Minnesota wearing their beautiful green and gold Reverse Retro jerseys, I was disappointed to see the Jets not rocking their white Reverse Retros in this one for a couple of reasons.
