St. Louis Blues Opposition: Minnesota Wild

There is not much to separate the St. Louis Blues and Minnesota Wild. The Blues have had better regular season success, but that’s about it.

Well, we’ve done it. We have finally reached the playoffs in terms of St. Louis Blues opponents.

Of course, that does not mean literally. I’m talking about teams that made the playoffs last season. Now, we focus on budding rival, the Minnesota Wild.

The Wild somewhat backed into the playoffs in 2015-16. They went 5-5 in their last ten games and lost five in a row.

Mainly, they made the playoffs because the Colorado Avalanche were even worse down the stretch. The Avs lost six in a row and were 2-8 in their last ten.

Not exactly a glowing review of the Wild.…
