ST. PAUL, Minn. -- Filip Gustavsson stopped all 27 shots faced for the Minnesota Wild in a 1-0 win against the Boston Bruins at Xcel Energy Center on Sunday.
Frederick Gaudreau scored for Minnesota (35-22-4), which had lost three straight. It was Gustavsson’s fourth shutout of the year.

Jeremy Swayman made 21 saves for Boston (28-26-8), which won 3-2 at the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday but has lost six of the past seven (1-4-2). David Patrnak’s 17-game point streak (15 goals, 18 assists) ended.

Gaudreau gave the Wild a 1-0 lead at 5:01 of the second period, getting position in front to redirect Marcus Johansson’s wrist shot from the high slot past Swayman.

The Bruins were without captain Brad Marchand, who left Saturday’s win with an upper-body injury after he was hit into the boards in the first period and needed held from Pastrnak and a trainer to get off the ice.

Its sad when the bright spot is watching a young defenseman dangle around 3 players at least trying to be creative but the forwards are nowhere to be found. I believe there was a span of around 13 minutes where the Bruins didn't even have a shot.
Going 13 minutes w/o a shot isn't as easy as one thinks. Takes a special team to do that. And I don't believe this was the 1st time the B's have done that this season.
 
Will they do it? No, because no player want to lose, but just keep losing so we can get a better draft position. If this team manages to sneak into the playoffs, they'll get curb stomped in 4 games.
You're right; no player wants to lose, but losing some players would be a plus for the B's.

So many plays die on Coyle’s stick.
The grim reaper.
