The Minnesota Wild face the Dallas Stars in a crucial matchup with playoff implications. Jonas Brodin's absence leaves the Wild shorthanded on defense. Filip Gustavsson, coming off a stellar week as NHL's First Star, looks to continue his hot streak. The Stars, led by newcomer Mikko Rantanen, have struggled to find consistency since the trade deadline.

Host Seth Toupal breaks down key storylines, including the Wild's recent success and the Stars' tendency for one-goal games. He analyzes both teams' records when scoring first and leading after periods, emphasizing the importance of a strong start. With the Wild holding the first wild card spot, this game could impact playoff seeding.

Will Matt Boldy and crew lead the Wild to victory, or can Jake Oettinger and the Stars' powerplay prove too much? Watch now to see if Minnesota can upset Dallas on the road and solidify their playoff position!
