Darcy Kuemper gets the nod tonight against the Nashville Predators

UPDATED

The Wild will be looking to complete its four-game homestand (2-1) with a third win of the season tonight against the Nashville Predators.

It'll have to avoid fatigue and a letdown after last night's emotional come-from-behind win over Anaheim.

It will be without captain Mikko Koivu, who's sick. Jordan Schroeder will slide into second-line center.

The Wild's 4-1-1 in the back end of back-to-backs this season, 4-0-1 in its past five.

The Wild has won six straight against the Central Division and is 13-0-2 in its past 15 against the Western Conference.

Darcy Kuemper vs. Pekka Rinne.

Kuemper is 3-0-1 in his past four starts but has allowed 18 goals in his past five starts.

Charlie Coyle has four points against Nashville this season..

He has 10 assists in the past 12 games but only one goal and is back in his annual rut of not shooting. In the first 26 games, he had 61 shots. In the past 19 games, he has 27 shots and four in the past seven.

Eric Staal has two goals and an assist against Nashville this season.

P.K. Subban was the first defenseman to ever have a hat trick against Minnesota in 2011. RW James Neal leads with 15 goals. LW Filip Forsberg has 10 goals in his past 19 games.

Former Pred Ryan Suter scored the game-winning goal and had two assists and matched a career-best with a plus-4 last night against Anaheim to celebrate his 32nd birthday.

According to the Elias Sports Bureau, his goal and two assists in 1:59 is the fastest three points by a Wild player in history. The old record was three (1 G, 2 A) in 3:27 by Mikael Granlund on 2/22/2015 vs. Dallas.

The last player to do it in 2 minutes or less was the Blues' Alexander Steen (also in 1:59) on 11/11/2014 vs. Buffalo.

Nate Prosser gets back in for Christian Folin.

Tyler Graovac draws back in after being a healthy scratch for the first time this season.
