Goaltender Devan Dubnyk, who played Sunday in the Honda 2017 NHL All-Star Game, is expected to start in the second of back-to-back games for the Minnesota Wild. Backup Darcy Kuemper made 41 saves in Minnesota's 5-2 win at the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday. "Realistically I could've gone [Tuesday]," Dubnyk said. "With the back-to-back, I'm only going to get one of them anyway. It makes sense to have the break." Dubnyk is 18-2-0 in his past 20 starts, allowing 42 goals in that span. Minnesota has an NHL-best plus-54 goal differential and leads the Western Conference with 71 points. The Wild are 9-2-0 in their past 11 games and 22-3-1 in the past 26. "We're scoring three, four, five a game and we're getting some good contributions up and down the lineup," forward Zach Parise said. "When you're doing that I think we've been pretty tough to beat." The Wild have earned at least one point in a franchise-record 14 straight road games (12-0-2), a streak that began with a 3-2 shootout loss to the Calgary Flames at Scotiabank Saddledome on Dec. 2. "These long road trips that drag on and you're tired and guys are banged up, you're always going to need different players to step up," Dubnyk said. "This year has been special from getting it from anybody in the dressing room on any night."
