3. As the series shifts to St. Louis on Sunday, the Wild will try and dig out of a 2-0 hole.
Minnesota has done it before, as recently as 2014, when the Wild dropped the first two games of its first-round series at Colorado before eventually rallying to win in seven games.
"We've been there before. Similar situation," Pominville said. "We went in there and found a way to win, and that's what we've got to do again. That's in the past, but we've got to make sure that we regroup and our focus has to be on the next game and not on the end result."
This time around, however, the Wild will need to do some serious work on the road. Getting a win in Game 3 becomes vitally important, if for no other reason than to gain some confidence. Minnesota has played solid hockey in the series, outplaying the Blues for large portions of each of the first two games. So far, though, the desired results haven't followed.
"[We] can't do much about the first two games now, just worry about the third one," Parise said. "We're going to have to ... look for places we can be better and worry about getting that next game and not dwell on the fact that we're down 0-2."
