1. Zach Parise, Wild: Third 3-point game of season (two goals, one assist) and five shots.
2. Mikko Koivu, Wild: Like Parise, relentless all night and finished with one goal, one assist, six shots and 10 of 16 faceoff wins.
3. Matt Cullen, Wild: Former Moorhead High and St. Cloud State standout became the 37th American and ninth Minnesotan to reach 200 goals; 1 assist, 4 shots.
