Dubnyk, Wild Shutout Blackhawks 3-0

Dubnyk has 24 saves as Wild roll

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Devan Dubnyk stopped 24 shots in his third shoutout since joining Minnesota in mid-January, leading the Wild to their fourth straight win, 3-0 over the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday night.

Mikko Koivu, Jason Zucker and Mikael Granlund each scored for the Wild. Since being acquired by Minnesota in a trade with Arizona, Dubnyk is 6-1 with a 1.57 goals against average. He has four shutouts overall this season.

The Blackhawks, fourth in the Western Conference, spent the previous two days in Las Vegas and were outshot 43-24. They've been shut out in their last two and haven't won consecutive games in over a month.

Wild's Cooke still sidelined with lower-body injury

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Minnesota Wild left wing Matt Cooke has a lower-body injury that could end his season early.

Coach Mike Yeo says there was "definitely potential" of a long-term absence for Cooke. Yeo declined Tuesday to specify the nature of the injury, saying he was waiting for more information before revealing a timetable for Cooke's recovery.

Cooke has missed 22 games over nearly two months early in the season because of a hip flexor muscle injury. Yeo says this injury is different but might have resulted from overcompensation for the other condition.

The Wild also placed right wing Justin Fontaine on injured reserve Tuesday with a lower-body injury and recalled center Jordan Schroeder from their AHL affiliate in Iowa.
