MINNEAPOLIS — Space wasn't in short supply on the Wild bench in the second period.
That's when the team was briefly down to only 16 skaters and just nine of them were forwards.
Already short-staffed due to injury and illness, the Wild offense reflected its circumstances and was blanked 3-0 by the Blues on Sunday in front of 18,745 at Xcel Energy Center to wrap a weekend back-to-back winless.
