ST. PAUL -- The weather forecast for the next week in Minnesota is typical of the state in January: temperatures won't climb above the single digits until Sunday.
Perfect timing for the Wild to head to California, where it's a balmy 55 degrees in San Jose and 65 in Los Angeles.
"Last night when I was packing up for this road trip, I put a couple things in [my] bag that you definitely wouldn't be able to wear around Minnesota in January, so that's kind of nice," said Matt Dumba. "I think it'll be refreshing seeing that sun."
