Wild home woes continue in shutout loss to Kraken

Six photographs within the first interval set the tone for a tough night time on the ice because the Minnesota Wild (5-5-1) received blanked at house 4-0 by the Seattle Kraken (6-4-2). 

Seattle had simply 4 photographs within the opening interval, however they erupted with three targets within the second by Morgan Geekie, Jamie Oleksiak and Alex Wennberg. 

Wennberg added his second of the sport for a 4-0 lead halfway via the third interval and the Kraken held tight for his or her third straight win. 

The Wild are actually 2-4 at house, a far cry from final season after they have been 27-10-4 contained in the Xcel Power Heart. 

If there’s an excuse, it is that Minnesota was down 4 of its high 9 forwards. Jordan Greenway, Marcus Foligno, Ryan Hartman and Brandon Duhaime are all out with what the Wild have referred to as “higher physique” accidents. 

Head coach Dean Evason mentioned earlier Thursday that Greenway is the closest to returning and will be a part of the Wild on a three-game highway journey on the West Coast that begins Tuesday towards the L.A. Kings.
