Minnesota Wild Defeats San Jose Sharks 3-1

In a decisive 3-1 victory, the Minnesota Wild, led by goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury's 36 saves, defeated the San Jose Sharks. Despite being short-handed without their leading scorer Kirill Kaprizov, the Wild extended their winning streak to five out of six games, with Marco Rossi and Matt Boldy each contributing their 16th goals of the season. Mats Zuccarello assisted on both goals and sealed the win with an empty-net goal. The Sharks managed to score once through William Eklund but faced their third consecutive loss and have now dropped 11 of their last 13 games. Fleury's performance improved his career record against the Sharks to 20-5-4, and he is likely playing his last season before retirement. The Sharks will embark on a five-game road trip starting with the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday.
