The Wild have a brutal stretch to end the season. They still play Nashville and St Louis three times each. There next 10 games are "easy", with only 2 against playoff teams (and two of their next three against the Oilers). After that though, 14 of their final 15 games are against teams currently in a playoff spot.

With the standings as tight as they are, they can't even count on teams relaxing late in the season because there will likely be jockeying for position right up until the end of the season.
