Feb 6, 2007 - 5:21 PM Minnesota (29-21-4) at Dallas (31-20-2) 8:00 pm EST

DALLAS (Ticker) - The Minnesota Wild are getting quite comfortable on the road.

Looking to match their best road stretch of the season, the Wild skate against the Dallas Stars on Tuesday.

Winners of seven of its last eight games away from home, Minnesota improved to 3-1 on its current five-game trip and looks for its season high-tying fourth straight road win. The Wild also won four consecutive road games from January 11-19.

Minnesota defeated Phoenix, 1-0, on Saturday. Marian Gaborik scored the game's only goal and Niklas Backstrom posted his second career shutout.

The Wild have won four of five since a 2-1 loss to the Stars on January 20. However, they have lost five straight to Dallas.

After going 2-2 on a road swing, Dallas opens a five-game homestand. The Stars are coming off Saturday's 2-0 loss to St. Louis, the fourth time they have been blanked this season.
