Wild Wrap Up: #nojetsno

The second period started off well, but then the wheels came off. By the end of the period, the Jets were leading and Wild fans were scratching their heads trying to figure out what went wrong.

The third period started out with a lot of back and forth. The Wild have a few good chances, as did the Jets. Brodin made a very rare mistake that the Jets almost converted into a goal.

The Kaptain was true to his strong face off form, winning 79% of his faceoffs after 2 periods. He kept on his game and forced a turnover in the middle of th 3rd, and got the puck to Parise who then found Suter for the tying goal.

Of course, just like every good storyline, this game went into overtime. After Parise and Koivu were denied, Pominville scored on a filthy, yet beautiful goal to lead the Wild to victory.

Coyle dominated in the faceoff circle, winning 80% of his draws (12 of 15). The Kaptian won 17 of 22 for 77%.

Parise said after the game that he felt the Wild preformed "Okay", but that the team will get better. Coach Mike Yeo echoed that sentiment by saying that the game was far from perfect, especially for the first line. However, It was exactly what the coaches were expecting from everyone playing in their first game of the season.

The Wild play in Columbus on Monday night, and after that game the team is expected to make their first round of substantial roster cuts.
