After a 3 game slide in Canada, the Wild find their game while (not surprisingly) playing at the Xcel Energy Center. Its no secret that the Wild seem to play much better at home, and Sunday night they showed the depth and potency of an injured offense. With Koivu still out due to the injury sustained last week against Vancouver, Dimitra still nursing an injured groin, and Walz on a leave of absence, the Wild were left with 3 centers, and they really stepped up their game. James Sheppard tallied 2 points with 2 assists, and Foy and Voros marked 1 goal each, making this line of young prospects the most productive line of the game.   Foy received the game puck, after scoring his first goal in the NHL since the 2005 - 2006 season. Harding who started made 27 saves, and played solid between the pipes.

Hopefully the Wild can start a streak continuing against Vancouver at Xcel this Wednesday.
