It was a best-case scenario for the Wild on Sunday. They didn't get outplayed by the home team Avalanche, but they didn't win in regulation either allowing Colorado to earn a point and move ahead of Calgary in the Western Conference setting the stage for a first round playoff series between Minnesota and the Avs. Numbers don't lie and the match up for Minnesota is much more favorable than one versus the Flames.
For the playoff series MNHockey will feature for the first time Beyond the Box Score which will provide a more detailed account of how the result came to be as well as a break down of individual players performances. And like always there will be links to the various articles on the net about the games.
