Josh Harding stopped 23 shots in the Minnesota Wild's 5-2 triumph over the Dallas Stars on Saturday night. On most nights over the last month-plus, two goals was enough to be saddled with the loss, but Harding had some rare breathing room in this one. He allowed the game's first goal at the end of the first period, but the Wild scored four in the second. Harding now has a 9-6-3 record with a 2.42 goals-against average and .925 save percentage. This was only the Wild's third win in their last 18 games.
