New coach has Wild on top of NHL

The Minnesota Wild will attempt to win their eighth straight road game when they take on the Jets tonight in Winnipeg. The Wild have already set a franchise record by winning seven straight away from home. The Wild have been the surprise team in the NHL this season, compiling the league's best record after missing the playoffs for the last three years.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Michael Russo who covers the Wild for the Star Tribune.
