LAS VEGAS -- — Mark Stone was coming back from a lacerated spleen, Tomas Hertl was still trying to find his form after knee surgery and Alex Pietrangelo underwent an appendectomy as the playoffs neared.
The Minnesota Wild hockey team has added a new and adorable member to their team. No, he's not a hockey player, he's a cute puppy who will have a very special job.
After Zach Bogosian pulled the Wild even at 2 two minutes into the third period, Ek beat goalie Karel Vejmelka with a wrist shot from the left circle at 7:16.
