Today we’ll look at three keys for the Minnesota Wild to make a run in the playoffs.

In the Western Conference’s first wild card position, Minnesota has 95 points. Behind them, the Winnipeg Jets have the second wild card spot with 90 points, and the Los Angeles Kings are just outside of the playoffs, with 88 points. It’s looking like the Wild will make the playoffs for the third year in a row. Minnesota has six games remaining.
