Wild lose lead, Suter, but still win 6-5 over Jets

The Minnesota Wild got three points in the first period by Mikael Granlund, goals by Ryan White and Tyler Graovac, a multi-point night for Martin Hanzal, and it still came down to the wire in a truly wild one at MTS Center in Winnipeg. Jason Zucker’s 20th goal of the season just before time expired on a Nino Niederreiter penalty was the game-winning goal in a game the Wild gave up a three goal lead, only to win 6-5 in regulation.

Playing on the second night of a back-to-back, the Wild gave up the early lead as they tried to find their legs early.
