Kevin Fiala scores 30th goal of the season in Wild's 2-0 win over Canadiens

MONTREAL — The Wild didn't bring its high-octane offense with it to Montreal, but the team still outscored the struggling Canadiens.

In one of its quieter performances of the season — and not just compared to the 5-4 overtime win on Sunday against the Sharks that clinched a playoff berth — the Wild eked out a 2-0 win on Tuesday at Bell Centre thanks to Kevin Fiala's 30th goal of the season, a highlight-reel play from Matt Boldy and a 26-save shutout by goaltender Cam Talbot.

Fiala is the Wild's third 30-goal scorer, a franchise high, while Talbot notched his 199th career victory with his third clean slate of the season and 27th overall in the NHL.
