The Minnesota Wild knows this if they can somehow get the Chicago Blackhawks in "Winning Time" dba the Stanley Cup Playoffs the Indian Head might be in serious trouble. The Wild gets two points as the Hawks get one point as Minnesota wins in a shootout.

The Game was scoreless through one as both teams would score in the 2nd twice.  Erik Haula opened that scoring up for the Wild with his 11th making it 1-0 Minnesota and that was just 50 seconds into frame two as he beat Scott Darling of the Hawks. Nino Niederreiter gets his 18th as the Wild was up 2-0.

Not even two minutes after that Andrew Shaw scores his 11th on the season cutting that Hawks deficit to 2-1. Richard Panik then tied the game up five minutes and some change after Shaw as they beat Wild Blue-Paint Tenant  Devan Dubnyk of the Wild.

The game went scoreless in the 3rd as they went to a shootout. The Hawks Captain Serious dba Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, and Artemi Panarin all were stopped by Dubnyk as Charlie Coyle beat Darling in the Wild 1st attempt for a Shootout "W"!

The Hawks moved to 91 points as they are 4 points behind the Central leading Stars (Game tomorrow night at the Madhouse Stars vs Hawks) and two points behind the Blue Notes.  Minnesota at 34-28-11 and 79 points is in the 9th slot just a point behind the Avs fighting for that last slot at #8 held down by Colorado.
