With Yakov Trenin spending one-fourth of the opening period in solitary confinement, the Predators game operations folks waited until a second period media timeout to play a video showing

The Minnesota Wild took on the Nashville Predators for the third time this season and the first time on the road on Saturday, Jan. 18. It was a battle

The Minnesota Wild had a big game circled against the Nashville Predators and revenge for Jared Spurgeon's injury was on their mind.

Yakov Trenin fought L'Heureux while Marcus Foligno fought Luke Schenn two minutes into the game. Ryan Hartman joined in on the action, fighting Mark Jankowski a few minutes later. It was a busy penalty box at Bridgestone Arena Saturday night.

Marcus Foligno has put a target on the back of Zach L'Heureux in the name of retribution for L'Heureux's slew-foot of Jared Spurgeon.

Kansas City Chiefs punter Matt Araiza intentionally tiptoed out of the end zone Saturday to surrender a safety, which added meaningless points to the scoreboard but shook the gambling world.

It didn't take the Minnesota Wild long to avenge their injured captain on Saturday as they visited the Nashville Predators.

Nashville (15-22-7, 37 points) beat the Chicago Blackhawks 3-2 on Thursday, clinching the win with a 3-for-3 shootout performance from Gustav Nyquist, Ryan O'Reilly, and Steven Stamkos. It was the Predators' first appearance in a shootout this season.

The Minnesota Wild (27-15-4) are back in action tonight for one more game on the road before they return home. They will face the Colorado Avalanche (28-18-1) today for a 2:00 p.m. central time start.

MacKinnon is the most likely Avalanche player to take advantage of a Wild defense that is bleeding shots. Not only is he the best shot-generator on the team, but the Wild have allowed the second-most shots to centers in the NHL over the past few weeks.
