Game Preview
In a grueling 82-game NHL season, certain matchups hold extra weight, and Saturday’s showdown between the Minnesota Wild and Dallas Stars in St. Paul, Minn., is one of them. Central Division rivals will face off in a game that promises intensity both on the ice and in the stands.
Wild forward Marcus Foligno called it a "measuring-stick game," emphasizing the need for patience and smart play against a team that caused them trouble last season. The Wild, off to a strong start with points in 14 of their first 16 games, aim to capitalize on home ice, while the Stars enter the matchup after dominant wins over the Pittsburgh Penguins and Boston Bruins, outscoring them 14-3 combined.
Dallas’ Evgenii Dadonov highlighted the team’s depth, netting his fourth career penalty-shot goal in their latest victory. Meanwhile, Tyler Seguin acknowledged the team’s offensive firepower, which features Matt Duchene leading with 20 points and Mason Marchment contributing 15 points in 14 games.
For the Wild, Kirill Kaprizov is setting the pace with 30 points, supported by Matt Boldy’s 17 points in 16 games. Goaltender Filip Gustavsson, who boasts an 8-2-2 record and a .924 save percentage, will likely start for Minnesota. Gustavsson’s strong career stats against Dallas include a 3-1-0 record and a stellar 1.73 GAA.
Dallas counters with Jake Oettinger, a Minnesota native, who has an 8-3-0 record this season. Oettinger is undefeated in regulation against the Wild in his career, with a 5-0-1 record.
Wild coach John Hynes praised his team’s cohesive play, noting their connected effort across all zones. With both teams performing at a high level, Saturday’s clash promises to be a compelling test for two Central Division contenders.
