Wild look to build on recent road success

Nov 16, 2007 - 2:37 PM Minnesota (10-6-2) at Vancouver (8-8-1) 10:00 pm EST

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Ticker) - The Minnesota Wild finally proved they could win on the road again.

The Wild end a four-game road trip with a visit to General Motors Place to take on the Vancouver Canucks on Friday.

Minnesota won three of its first four road games en route to winning seven of its first eight games. Until Thursday's 4-2 win at Edmonton, it has been a completely different story as they had dropped five straight games away from home.

Martin Skoula, Marian Gaborik, Kurtis Foster and Mark Parrish each scored in the victory. For Gaborik, it was a successful return to action after missing two games - both losses - due to a groin strain.

Vancouver will be looking to rid themselves of the bitter taste left by Wednesday's 1-0 shootout loss to the Edmonton Oilers. Despite outshooting the Oilers, 29-19, the Canucks were not able to solve Edmonton goaltender Mathieu Garon.

The loss snapped the Canucks three-game winning streak - each coming by one goal - and dropped the team to 2-6-1 on home ice.
