We should take this game seriously because they pretend for the playoffs spot too. Last 2 games we won against them, but that doesn't mean anything. From my understanding, Gustavsson will be a starter and hopefully will lead to our win. Predicting Wild win with a score 5:4. My dream is still is a dream that we will start placing 5 goals per game. My other dream that the Wild will start to produce at least 40 shots per game persistently. Then our success will be more evident.

Status report

Spurgeon, a defenseman, will miss his fifth straight game but could play when the Wild host the Boston Bruins on Saturday. … Hartman is a game-time decision with an undisclosed injury. ... Heineman will be making his NHL debut and replace Pezzetta in the lineup.
 

This from the NHL site. 
I hope they are wrong about Goose playing, he needs a break and Mermis should get a look for his earlier play this year.

Also rooting for a Wild win!l it would help the Penguins in the Wild card standings!
