#1/2, Win ROW win & LA OT Win
#3/4, Win ROW win & LA SO Win
#5, Win ROW win & Van SO Win


Meaning there were 31 options for how this night could have gone better.

It was only a little bit of help.

But as I said, a hell of a lot better than #1 or #2.

That said without a win yet in April the wild have slowly gotten pulled back into this race, they play Stl, Chi & Nas and need 3 points to clinch, far from a given.

If jets/wild went to OT, could have been worse also.
