Wild Draw First Blood

In the 2 years that GM Grant Farhall has been at the healm of the Wild organization the team has never one the first game of a playoff series.

So for once, it must be nice to enjoy a series lead, even if it could be a short one.

The Wild downed the Flames 5-2 on Friday night, to go up 1-0 in the series. The Wild were led by Mats Sundin's 2 goals and a 3 point effort by Daniel Sedin, while Curtis Joseph once again was strong in the nets.

Meanwhile GM Farhall was more happy to see Jason Spezza get on the board with his first post-season goal.

"We need Jason to get going and he looked good out there tonight. We expect game 2 to be much tougher though and we are going to have to be ready".

Dan Boyle had the other Wild goal, returning to the lineup after missing a single game to injury.
