Game Preview
After closing out a winning December on the road then getting a three-day break, the Minnesota Wild return home to Saint Paul on Wednesday night to face the Tampa Bay Lightning.
In a Central Division that has just six points separating third place from sixth place, the Wild fortified their third-place spot with an 12-4-0 run from Nov. 27 through year’s end. Part of that run is thanks to a six-game winning streak. Another major component is having a nearly full lineup.
On New Year’s Eve in St. Louis, Mason Shaw returned after a two-game suspension for kneeing the San Jose Sharks’ Evgeny Svechnikov. Marcus Foligno also was in the lineup following a three-game absence.
