Wild-Blackhawks Game 2

Another game, another frustrating performance by the Wild.  I would not say that the Blackhawks have played up to their potential in either of these two games, yet they lead the series 2-0.  How is that, you might ask?  Because they are converting their scoring chances and the Wild aren't.  The Wild hit three posts in Game 1 and in Game 2, they had plenty of chances once they got done sleepwalking through the first period.  At least Matt Moulson is making the decision easy on the Wild about resigning him.

So what has to happen for the Wild to get back into this series?

• Get the top lines going.  It's been three games since they made any noise.
• Feed off the crowd.  I thought again the atmosphere in Chicago for Game 2 was pretty flat.  The Wild should be able to feed off what should be a frenzied crowd on Tuesday night.
• Convert more of these golden chances they've been getting in games one and two
