ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota backup Jesper Wallstedt made 28 saves for his second straight shutout and Wild beat the Ducks 2-0 on Saturday night.

Wallstedt extended his shutout streak to 141:09 after beating Calgary 2-0 on Sunday night.

The 23-year-old Swede’s biggest save Saturday came when he robbed Frank Valtrano alone in front late in the second period. He’s the backup to Filip Gustavsson, the fellow Swede who signed a five-year, $34 million extension Oct. 4.

Marcus Johansson scored in the second period and Matt Boldy added an empty-netter.

Minnesota improved to 5-1-1 in its last seven games, allowing just 12 goals in that stretch. The Wild are 19-1-0 against the Ducks dating to the 2020-21 season, including six straight wins since March 14, 2024.
