Wild at Devils preview

The 23-year-old goalie was recalled on an emergency basis from Iowa of the American Hockey League on Nov. 20 after Devan Dubnyk returned home for personal reasons.

Minnesota is 3-0-3 in its past six games following a 3-2 overtime loss at the New York Rangers on Monday.

Louis Domingue will make his second straight start for the Devils after making 19 saves in a 5-1 win against the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday. Domingue last started consecutive games with the Tampa Bay Lightning when he won three straight starts (Dec. 6-10, 2018).

Players to watch

Wild forward Jason Zucker has five points (three goals, two assists) in his past six games.

Devils left wing Taylor Hall has a two-game goal streak and five points (two goals, three assists) in his past four games.

They said it

"We just don't close (games). You can't put that on any individual guy, but internally we've got to figure something out to make sure we play a full entire game because we play great up until the very end and give away games." -- Wild forward Ryan Donato

"The Wild are good on the forecheck and have big, strong, heavy players. It's tough to get into the scoring areas against their team the way they defend so we'll have to try and use our speed and make sure we're trying to get more on the attack." -- Devils coach John Hynes
