Wild's Depth Players Step Up in Crucial Week

0:00Welcome to NHL News Today. Two minutes of updates that matter to NHL fans, hit subscribe and stay connected. The Minnesota Wild wrapped up a tough homestand last week with four games, going just one in three. They kicked things off with a win over Utah, but then dropped decisions to Philadelphia, New York, and Toronto, amid a nasty snowstorm that hit during. They're back-to-back weekend set. Depth players have to step up if the Wild wants to climb back into the wind column. Their top scorers have carried the load, but guys like Vladimir Taraschenko chipped in two goals against Toronto. Others such as Marcus Johansson, Denilla Yurov, and Yakov Trinnon need to contribute more, especially with the playoffs approaching fast. Fans are growing concerned after three straight losses, including a couple to teams below them in the standings. That streak feels slippery, but the teams showed real fight by rallying late in the final game, even if they ran out of time. Starting ahead, the Wild have three games from March 16th to March 23rd.

1:00They start Tuesday, March 17th, at Chicago's United Center, at 6.30pm Central Time. Nick Felineo's first trip back there. Then it's Thursday, March 19th, hosting Chicago again at 6.30pm, followed by Saturday, March 21st, against Division Rival Dallas at 3pm, both at home. A strong week here could get them rolling toward the postseason, appreciation to our sponsor for backing this episode. The bedtime ritual just got better.
