NHL News: Jesper Wallstedt continues stellar run as Wild blank Oilers

Jesper Wallstedt stopped all 32 shots he faced en route to his fourth shutout over his past six starts as the Minnesota Wild earned a 1-0 road win over the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday.

The NHL’s hottest goaltender earned his seventh straight win while extending the Wild’s point streak to 12 games (10-0-2).

Three days after the Oilers shut out the Seattle Kraken, Wallstedt and the Wild gave Edmonton a taste of their own medicine as they were unable to find the scoresheet for the first time all season.

Jonas Brodin tallied the game’s lone goal at 13:11 of the first period. The Minnesota defenseman blasted a slap shot past Edmonton goalie Stuart Skinner (23 saves).

Brodin stepped in and one-timed a won faceoff by Nico Sturm, not long after the Wild were unable to capitalize on the game’s opening power play.

The Oilers were on the man advantage with 13:02 left in the second period when Wallstedt robbed Zach Hyman.

Hyman took a pass out front of the net and made a quick move to the backhand, only for the red-hot goaltender to kick out his pad to deny the possible game-tying goal.

With 9:35 remaining in the second, Evan Bouchard hooked up with Leon Draisaitl for a give-and-go, but the Oilers’ top defenseman soared his shot over the net.

With just under five minutes left in the middle frame, Draisaitl came storming down on a 3-on-2 and handed it off to Andrew Mangiapane, but once again Wallstedt stepped up and turned away another high-quality chance.

Edmonton star Connor McDavid finally recorded his first shot on goal with 6:43 left in the contest, but Wallstedt was once again up to the task.

Minnesota’s Matt Boldy took a penalty with 40 seconds left in the game, but the Oilers were unable to find some late-game heroics.

Draisaitl saw his eight-game point streak (five goals, eight assists) come to an end.
