With AHL Iowa, they say winning "is not the mandate." But what does that mean for development? www.nytimes.com/athletic/636...

#mnwild empty handed on back to back power plays. Could end up costing them in a tight game like this. They had some looks on the second one

#mnwild and Ducks tied 1-1 after one. 12-12 in shots on goal.

Alex Killorn ties it up 1-1 with 6:12 to go in first. Centering pass goes off Middleton, then to Killorn in front

Marcus Johansson 1-0

Foligno on a 2-on-1 with Rossi. Another post

Rossi, 3-2. #mnwild with a huge win in OT

#mnwild 5-for-5 on PK today. Not many nights where the unit has been the MVP, but this one is up there. Last kill without Faber. Got a little break with Robertson hitting post, but still impressive

Three kills for #mnwild, coming through clutch today. Then Stars score right after to tie it. 6:54 left

Marcus Foligno 2-1 #mnwild. Potentially one of biggest goals of team's season there if they hold on to win

Matt Boldy, who had a great chance a few moments ago, had a re-direct. Then, as he fell to his knees, took big whack at a loose puck and finally beat Oettinger.

Matt Boldy 1-1 #mnwild

#mnwild power play now 0-for-3 tonight. Not much on that last one either

#mnwild with another power play. 40 seconds left in period. Huge moment here for them, still down 1-0

#mnwild back on power play with seven minutes to go in second period. Still down 1-0

Gustav Nyquist with a great chance there on the power play. Man has Oettinger has been so good against the #mnwild

A couple solid kills by #mnwild so far in this game - missing one of their top 'D' on the kill in Middleton. Now Minnesota gets their first power play

It's 13-1 in 5-on-5 shots on goal for #mnwild in this game, per Natural Stat Trick

#mnwild hold on late in that period, but #stars take a 2-0 lead heading into the third. Goals by Johnston and Duchene

With the way Gustavsson is playing, you knew it'd take a screen/deflection to beat him. And that's what happened with Wyatt Johnston's PPG. 1-0 Stars

The #mnwild and Stars are 0-0 after first period. After giving up just one shot in the first 10 minutes, Minnesota gave up several grade-A chances in the second half of the period. The NHL's No. 1 star of the week Filip Gustavsson has stood tall

Some strong saves by Gustavsson there on PK. Hynes said your goalie is usually your best penalty killer, and Gustavsson should get some credit for the #mnwild PK recent stretch (14-for-15 in last seven games)

#mnwild have been really good defensively so far. Not giving Stars anything, especially on the inside. Good sticks, positioning. Ending plays. And now Minnesota goes on the power play

#mnwild beat Seattle 4-0, their second straight win. Fastest three goals to start game in NHL this season. Hartman, Boldy (2), Ohgren with the goals. Gustavsson was really good again with 34 save shutout.

#mnwild with a 3-0 lead after two periods vs Seattle. Gustavsson has been sharp again. Down 23-18 in shots on goal. Rossi left game with lower body injury. Spurgeon left game temporarily but came back.

Pretty smooth kill by #mnwild, who are now in an 11-for-12 run on PK

Something to monitor with Marco Rossi missing from bench after taking shot in mid-section by Boldy. Gaudreau took his last shift, Nyquist in his spot on first power play

#mnwild with three goals in the first 4 minutes, 29 seconds to take a 3-0 lead. Matt Boldy snapped an 11-game goal drought. Liam Ohgren, an emergency callup, scored a slick goal off the rush. Ryan Hartman started it off

A big, big win here by #mnwild, beating Kings 3-1. They snapped L.A.'s five-game winning streak. Gustavsson with 29 saves (Merrill with arguably the best). Zuccraello with PPG game winner. PK goes 3-for-4. Ryan Hartman's line a driver.

Marcus Johansson with the empty netter and that should seal it. 3-1 #mnwild

That's Zuccarello's 100th goal with #mnwild and it was a damn big one. 2-1 with just over four minutes left

With 5:12 left and a tie game, #mnwild go to the power play.

Matt Boldy with a great look but Anderson - already without a stick - lays down and gets the big block.

Boldy and his line had a really good chance there. First Boldy's tip on Faber's shot, then Boldy's backhand pass trickled into the crease. Still 1-1

#mnwild and Kings tied 1-1 heading into third period. Ryan Hartman PPG the tying tally. A pretty solid performance by Minnesota so far, including 2-for-3 on the PK.

Ryan Hartman with the PPG and it's 1-1 #mnwild

#LaKings thought they scored in first minute but Brandt Clarke clearly took Gustavsson out for goalie interference. Refs had to help get his stick out of Gustavsson's skate

#mnwild trail 1-0 to L.A. after first period. Not a bad period for Minnesota overall. They had their share of chances. A power play goal by Kempe the difference right now.

Wow. A couple big stops by Gustavsson than a goal-saving swipe by Merrill in the crease

That's just the way it's been going lately for #mnwild. They start game with some strong o-zone shifts. Energy. And then Rossi gets sent to box on a weak slashing call and #LAKings score 16 seconds later. The way Minnesota has struggled to score, tough to fall behind early again

What a great look by Gaudreau in the slot, but Kuemper makes the stop
