The Minnesota Wild faced a crushing defeat against the Edmonton Oilers, losing 7-1 at home. The game turned disastrous early when defenseman Jake Middleton left with an injury, leaving the Wild shorthanded.

Leon Draisaitl shone for the Oilers, scoring a goal and assisting on three others, solidifying his MVP candidacy. Despite a brief response from Frederick Gaudreau, the Oilers dominated the game, exploiting the Wild's struggling penalty kill and power play.
