The Minnesota Wild [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/minnesota-wild] (35-14-10) picked up a win on Thursday against the Colorado Avalanche [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/colorado-avalanche] (38-10-9) to push its winning-streak to six games in a row. We have talked about Quinn Hughes and his records. We have certainly touched on Kirill Kaprizov and his stats. But, Matt Boldy is quickly becoming a star for the Wild. Boldy, 24, recorded his fifth career four-point game on Thursday, tying Mats Zuccarello for the second-most in franchise history. Only Marian Gaborik, with seven, has more. For a franchise that has leaned on stars in different eras, that’s rare company. But Boldy didn’t stop there. Fresh off a Gold Medal, Boldy became the first player in Wild history to record consecutive four-point games. He posted a 3-1—4 line on Feb. 4 in Nashville [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/minnesota-wild/latest-news/wild-s-matt-boldy-named-nhl-first-star-of-the-week] and followed it up with another four-point performance to etch his name into the record books. That’s not just a hot streak. That’s franchise-level production. And at 24 years old, this doesn’t feel like a ceiling. It feels like a step. If this is the version of Boldy the Wild are getting down the stretch, Minnesota isn’t just getting scoring. They’re getting a franchise pillar hitting his stride at the right time. The Wild forward is now third in the NHL in goals with 34 behind only Connor McDavid and Nathan MacKinnon.
