Old story in Calgary: Iginla is igniting the Flames

Found March 29, 2008 on From The Field To The Rink:
Wild kick it into gear, send Canucks to fourth straight loss
TEAMS: Minnesota Wild,  Vancouver Canucks
PLAYERS: Marian Gaborik,  Niklas Backstrom,  Mikko Koivu
Niklas_backstrom
With just 4 games remaining in the regular season, the Minnesota Wild are getting hot at the right time. Mikko Koivu had a goal and an assist and Niklas Backstrom had 28 saves en route to a 4-0 win over the Vancouver Canucks. The game featured everything a Wild fan could want: a dominating win by a team that had been struggling to score, a brawl in the middle of the third period, and a wicked performance by Backstrom that propelled the Wild to victory.

    I don't know how hot the Wild can be when last week they gave up 5 goals in back to back division losses when they traveled to Alberta to play the Flames and Oilers.

    Being a Flyers fan .....don't hear much from the Western Conference.....but that's what the Center Ice package is for. And the Wild are a seriously underrated team by the majority of NHL media and fans. really excited to see them in the playoffs.
