A little positive spin on things, if the Wild do hold on to the 7th or 8th seed they are locking up away ice advantage. With how the Wild are playing at home recently this could only be a good thing, a little road cooking is just what we need. Unfortunately though, 2 of our remaining 3 games are at home, which hasn't been kind to us and could end up being the death nail in the coffin.
