Minnesota (9-5-2) VS Calgary (6-8-3)
It's amazing how fast Calgary has sucked themselves out of contention in the Northwest. They were tied with the Avalanche for second place behind Minnesota just over a week ago, and since then they've collapsed. The Flame-Outs are now eight points behind Colorado and five behind the Wild. That said, the Wild absolutely must lose as many games as possible, so I won't root for the Flames tonight (I can't) but I won't root against them. Is there a scenario in which neither team gets any points from this game?
[Final score: Calgary 3, Minnesota 2]
