MINNEAPOLIS — The Wild's funk followed them home.
After getting swept on their last road trip, the Wild were worse at Xcel Energy Center where they were throttled 5-1 by the Golden Knights on Thursday in front of 18,797 to drop three in a row at the outset of a pivotal seven-game homestand.
Overall, the Wild have lost six of their last eight to just barely remain in a playoff position; with 58 points, they currently occupy the last wild-card seed in the Western Conference.
