Minnesota Wild

The Minnesota Wild have lost eight of their last ten games and that isn't sitting well with coach Mike Yeo, who went off on a tirade of epic proportions during the Wild's practice earlier this week.

The Minnesota Wild continued their mid-season slump Tuesday with a disappointing 4-3 overtime loss to the San Jose Sharks at Xcel Energy Center. The Wild are now 18-15-5 on the season and are now six points out of a playoff spot in the Western Conference.

The Wild erased a 2-0, second period deficit with a trio of goals from Ryan Carter, Justin Fontaine and Marco Scandella. Scandella's game winner was his ninth goal of the season, fifth-best among all NHL defensemen.

The Minnesota Wild are looking to snap a five game losing skid Monday night when they take on the Jets in Winnipeg. The Jets sent the Wild to their most recent defeat with a 4-3 overtime decision on Saturday night in St. Paul.

The Minnesota Wild lost 5-2 at home to Philadelphia Tuesday night. Marco Scandella and Charlie Coyle each scored a goal for the Wild. Coyle's goal in the 2nd period tied the game at 2 but Wayne Simmons scored a goal late in the 2nd to give the Flyers a 3-2 lead.

Tuesday's game can be heard on AM 1390 The Fan beginning with the pregame show at 5:45.

The Wild out-shot the Bruins 37-27 in the game, including 20-5 in the second period, but could not score in the second frame despite the lopsided total.

The Wild host Boston Wednesday night (6:45 on AM 1390 The Fan).

The Wild are at Arizona Saturday night.

The Wild got goals from Mikko Koivu, Erik Haula, Thomas Vanek and Nino Niederreiter in the third period to earn the win.

The Wild used a pair of unique goals and some solid defense to top the Montreal Canadiens 2-0 Wednesday night at Xcel Energy Center.

The Minnesota Wild lost 4-0 at home to the L.A. Kings Wednesday night. The Kings scored 4 first period goals. Darcy Kuemper allowed 4 goals with 6 saves before being lifted for Niklas Backstrom. Backstrom had 12 saves the rest of the way.
