Anaheim, California: Matt Dumba is hardly the player most likely to score in overtime. The defenceman has just three goals this season for Minnesota.
But two of them have been game-winners in OT this week, the second coming Friday night to give the Wild a 3-2 victory over the Anaheim Ducks. “I think he likes overtime,” Minnesota coach Bruce Boudreau said. “He’s such a good skater and he gets to roam a little bit. It works out really well for him.”
The Wild dominated the 3-on-3 overtime period against Anaheim. Dumba finally charged the net, faked one way and then wrapped the winning goal around John Gibson at 3:43 of the extra period.
