Players To Watch:

Minnesota Wild

Matt Boldy has goals in three of his last four games, and the Millis, Massachusetts native leads the Wild in goals with eight. Boldy is second on the Wild in points with 15, trailing only Karil Kaprizov who leads Minnesota with 24 points this season.

Anaheim Ducks

Lukas Dostal has been tremendous in goal for Anaheim this season. The 24-year-old netminder has been one of the best stories of the NHL season to date. The Brno, Czechia native is 4-4-2 with a .930% save percentage, a 2.50 goals against average, and a shutout. If not for Dostal the Ducks would be much lower in the standings.
