Dean Evason was asked after Wednesday's morning skate in Winnipeg if the Wild faced any extra challenges because they were playing the Jets on the second night of back-to-back situation.
"There should be none,'' the Wild coach said, expecting a fast start from his team. "It's just hockey. We saw a team last night, Calgary, that played back-to-back, and they beat us. We've been in these situations before.''
The fast start didn't come, but the Wild still emerged victorious and moved into a first-place tie with Dallas in the Central Division, thanks in large part to the Flower and the Moose.
