ST. PAUL - The Minnesota Wild is back in action tonight to host the Vegas Golden Knights for Game 3 of round one of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The Golden Knights won Game 1 by the score of 4-2. The Wild were able to even the series with a 5-2 win in Game 2 on the road before returning home tonight for the first of two home games.
There was some talk that the Wild would make some lineup changes for Game 3 but that doesn't seem to be the case.

There is a reason why Marcus Foligno led the Wild during the regular season in WAR (wins above replacement). His value to this team is incredible and they would not be where they are without him.
