[IndyAndy]

Here is to hoping that a Saturday Matinee game will help the Wild end their long slump.

Brad Marchand will a short-handed goal puts Boston up 1-0

 

[IndyAndy]

Parise get tripped; ends up with a four minute high-sticking penalty.

 

[Win TWINS!!!]

Wild are in a death spiral.

 

[IndyAndy]

Vanek!!

Tie game.

... And the Bruins (Krejci) get it right back - with help from Niederreiter.

2-1 Boston.

 

[IndyAndy]

Eriksson makes it 3-1 Bruins on a break-away goal.

 

[IndyAndy]

The refs just gave Kuemper a gift: Otherwise, it would be 4-1 now.

 

[IndyAndy]

Chara scores an empty-netter in the closing minutes of the game.

4-1 Boston.

 

[Win TWINS!!!]

 

[IndyAndy]

Not that it matters at this point, but...

Riley!!

1st NHL goal for the Rookie.

And the final score is 4-2 Bruins.

The Wild showed plenty of heart IMO, but just couldn't close the deal.

And so the slump continues.
