LAS VEGAS – The Wild didn t win Game 1 until overtime, when Joel Eriksson Ek scored early in the extra session, but the team could have lost the game in the first period.
Vegas had the early edge, outshooting the Wild 19-5, and although the Wild survived the onslaught, the team is eyeing a better debut in Game 2 on Tuesday night at T-Mobile Arena when it has the chance to go up 2-0 in the best-of-seven, first-round series.
Road teams that go up 2-0 are 80-20 all-time in the Stanley Cup playoffs. The Wild hasn t won a Game 2 since April 11, 2008, vs. Colorado.
