A well deserved win. The Wild played well enough to steal a win in Calgary but the boys in red did all the things necessary to put themselves in a spot to get the two points.
Shots on net with traffic, killing all penalties especially at key moments and not backing down physically either in game around the net, after the whistle and standing for one another.
It wasn't a pretty win but it's one of those that you feel good about because you earned most of it. You could see how much the team enjoyed getting the victory when they celebrated with Johnson at the end. Of course another great goaltending performance to match the Dubnyk show we're usually frustrated to see.
