The Minnesota Wild saw their 3 game winning streak snapped by the Nashville Predators as they lost 3-2 at the Xcel Energy Center to fall 6 points out of a playoff spot in the Western Conference. After surviving the first period, the Wild took the lead on Joel Eriksson Ek's 21st goal of the season and led 1-0 after 2 periods. The Predators scored 3 straight goals, including 2 in a 30 second span to take a 3-1 lead. Matt Boldy scored his 16th goal of the year on the Power Play with just over 2 minutes to play to make it 3-2, but the Wild were unable to score the tying goal and lost a crucial game in regulation at home. Filip Gustavsson stopped 25 of 28 shots for the Wild, but took the loss. The Wild will play their final game before the All Star Break on Saturday against the Anaheim Ducks.
