Starting in Grand Rapids, Mich. tonight, the Iowa Wild will be travelling across the Midwest for the next week stopping in four different cities on the five game trip. With a win (or an overtime decision) tonight against the Griffins (Detroit Red Wings), the Wild will break the 30 pt threshold - six games ahead of the pace they set last season.
Another fun fact for this season: Iowa hasn’t lost back-to-back regulation contests since opening weekend against the Milwaukee Admirals (Nashville Predators).
On Sunday, the Wild broke a three game slide of overtime losses with a superb performance by Steve Michalek in a 40 save effort for a 2-1 win.
