Local View from 4 Foot 2

This afternoon the Minnesota WILD beat the WAS Capitals in St. Paul in a 5-2 game that had a bit more excitement than the score would lead you to believe.

The WILD regressed to not playing shutdown defense as they had in the few weeks before this game and took quite a few penalties to top it off.
