No. 11:  Minnesota Wild

Previous:  13th

Season Record:  15-8-4

Minnesota is a bit of a surprise this year.  They are currently third place in the Central Division, and have recently been winning a lot of close games (the last four to be exact).  This is the longest winning streak they’ve had all season.  The team has acquired at least one point in nine of the past 10 games.
