LOCAL PRODUCTS POWER WILD IN 2016 COORS LIGHT NHL STADIUM SERIES
University of Minnesota alumnus Erik Haula (2010-13) posted 1-2—3 and earned ‘First Star’ honors to lift the Wild over the Blackhawks in the 2016 Coors Light NHL Stadium Series at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

* At 27-22-10 (64 points), the Wild climbed within one point of the idle Predators (27-21-11, 65 points) for the final playoff berth in the Western Conference.

* The Wild improved to 4-0-0 under interim head coach John Torchetti following a stretch in which they lost 13 of 14 games (1-11-2), including eight straight (0-6-2). The team has scored five or more goals – all in regulation – in each of its four outings under Torchetti’s direction, a first in franchise history.

* Haula, a seventh-round selection (182nd overall) in the 2009 NHL Draft, registered his first career three-point game (171 GP). He also notched his fourth multi-point effort in his last seven outings (3‑6—9) after totaling five such performances in his first 164 career appearances.

* Several other local products aided in the Wild’s victory: White Bear Lake, Minn., nativeRyan Carter recorded 1-1—2; University of Minnesota alumnus Thomas Vanek (2002-04) scored his 17th goal of the season; and University of Minnesota alumnus Mike Reilly(2012-15) and University of Minnesota-Duluth alumnus Justin Fontaine (2007-11) each collected one assist.

* The Wild improved to 35-22-3 in their 60 all-time regular-season games against the Blackhawks (24-27-9), including five straight wins dating to Feb. 3, 2015 (3‑0-0 in 2015-16).

STADIUM SERIES QUICK HITS
* The Wild became just the fifth home team to win a regular-season outdoor NHL game (17 GP: 5-10-2) and the first to do so since the Capitals in the 2015 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic at Nationals Park (3-2 W, also vs. CHI).

* Twenty-five players appeared in their first regular-season outdoor NHL game (not including Minnesota’s Darcy Kuemper, who dressed but did not play) – 15 on the Wild, 10 on the Blackhawks.

* The Wild became the 20th team to participate in a regular-season outdoor NHL game. The Blackhawks competed in their fourth regular-season outdoor NHL game, the most of any club (1‑3-0).

* Four Blackhawks players have appeared in all four of the team’s regular-season outdoor NHL games: Patrick Kane, Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook and Jonathan Toews. Wild forward Jarret Stoll also played in his fourth regular-season outdoor NHL game. Their four such appearances are tied for the most in League history.

* Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews collected one assist to extend his record for points in regular-season outdoor NHL games (2-4—6 in 4 GP). His four assists in those contests also are tied for the most all-time, with teammate Marian Hossa (3 GP) and Detroit’s Henrik Zetterberg (2 GP).

* Wild teammates Erik Haula and Jason Pominville both notched 1-2—3 to equal the record for points in a regular-season outdoor NHL game. Pominville posted his 32nd career three-point performance and first since Jan. 15, 2015 at BUF (0-3—3).

* Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane scored his career-high 35th goal of the season, second in the NHL behind Washington’s Alex Ovechkin (38). Kane, who extended his point streak to five games (3-5—8), paces the League with 35-49—84 (62 GP) – four points shy of his career high set in 2009-10 (30-58—88 in 82 GP).
