Game recap
Star Tribune's three stars
1. Josh Harding, Wild: Wasn't tested often (21 saves for his 10th shutout), but his third-period robbery of Jakub Voracek was huge.
2. Torrey Mitchell, Wild: Along with Matt Cooke and Kyle Brodziak, had a second consecutive strong two-way game.
3. Jared Spurgeon, Wild: Rebounded from a tough game with an assist, a drawn penalty and four blocked shots.
By the numbers
7 The Wild ended its seven-game streak of allowing the first goal.
8 Charlie Coyle ended his eight-game goal-scoring drought.
14 Goals for Jason Pominville, tied for 5th in the NHL
