These two teams met on Monday with Minnesota prevailing 2-0 as Wild goalkeeper Kaapo Kahkonen stopped all 26 shots. The Golden Knights were without their top two players, Mark Stone and Alex Pietrangelo due to injury and the duo missed practice on Tuesday as well so their status for Wednesday is questionable.
Pittsburgh Penguins
Pekka Rinne turned aside 35 shots in the Nashville cage to halt a three-game losing streak by the Predators and a personal four-game losing skid. Rinne is 6-9-0 this season.
8. Boston Bruins. Charlie McAvoy has to be in the Norris Trophy discussion at this point. Still need to see a little more scoring depth at forward from this team.
Buffalo Sabres
Alex Tuch, Chandler Stephenson, Mark Stone and William Karlsson generated one goal and one assist each.
Los Angeles Kings
Jared McCann did not play in the third period but no reason had been given after the contest.
San Jose Sharks
The Senators started the year with a 1-8-1 record, but they’ve battled hard in most of their games. Even though their record isn’t very good, this young Sens team plays hard for head coach D.J. Smith. They’re a tougher out than you think and although the results aren’t there right now, it looks like their future is very bright.

Speaking of the Flames, they are the only team next week that plays just two games. Perhaps it's a chance to give them a rest from your fantasy roster in order to see how Sutter squares them up against -- would you look at that! -- the Montreal Canadiens.
