Minnesota leads the NHL with 43 points at its 30-game mark and second-line center Matt Cullen thinks he knows the reason for the Wild's success. "There's accountability," Cullen said. "There's an exception here that we want to build a winning team and a winning culture and we just can't accept bad games. You're going to lose from time to time, but it's not going to be because of a lack of effort."
