We'll have a ton of playoff coverage on the horizon, but first up:
Beginning Wednesday, the Wild and St. Louis Blues face off for the second time in three years. The Wild beat the Blues in 2015, 4 games to 2.
The Wild has made the playoffs five years in a row and eight times in 16 years. It's 24-39.
The Blues have made the playoffs 41 times and are 158-196 all-time.
Here's the schedule (I hear Games 1 and 2 will be able to be seen here locally on FSN and NBCSN).
