Wild shock Blackhawks with another last-minute victory

Well, well well. If it isn’t our old friend “tie the game late and dramatically win in OT.”

If there were a theme for this team, this would be it.

On the second night of a back-to-back, the Minnesota Wild came out slow and sluggish, as if they had just convincingly beaten this same team with a 5-1 win. A night where the Chicago Blackhawks stopped skating after the first 30 minutes and were preparing for the next one.

Ten minutes into the first, we got our first goal. Henrik Borgstrom tipped a point shot past Kaapo Kähkönen, which he didn’t have much of a chance on.
