Outside of that, Darling played a sensational game. He made made some big saves on Minnesota's shooters in the third period to preserve the tie into the third period.
Here's the hit:
The Wild out-shot the Blackhawks 16-7 in the third period. It just had trouble beating Darling and finding the back of the net.
The trios for the overtime were:
Yes, the player that was the biggest scoring catalyst for the team saw very limited time in the third period and only a short shift on the 4v3 power play in OT. It's a travesty that Nino and Haula wasn't on the ice more in crunch time.
On to the shootout and Dubnyk was able to stand tall, while Coyle's leadoff goal stood too tall for the Blackhawks to catch.
