Foligno is going through one of those stretches right now where he seems to make an impactful play every night. Sometimes it shows up in the boxscore, and sometimes it doesn't. Saturday was one of those times.
For Foligno, it was his first Gordie Howe hatty since Dec. 19, 2013 against the Boston Bruins, when he was a member of the Buffalo Sabres.
3. Minnesota continued its trend of daytime success, especially on the road.
Saturday's matinee affair in Newark was the first of back-to-back day games in the Big Apple, and maybe that's a good thing.
With the win, the Wild is now 6-0 in daytime starts away from home, securing wins over St. Louis, Winnipeg, Toronto, Ottawa, Vegas and now New Jersey.
Can the Wild make it 7-0 on Sunday against the New York Islanders? Tune into FOX Sports North tomorrow at 2 p.m. CT.
