It was good to get that for our line. Hopefully that can jumpstart us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Wild outshot the Flames 17-3 in the third, including a late push with Wallstedt pulled for an extra attacker, but weren\u2019t able to get any more pucks past Cooley.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe last five or 10 minutes where I was like, \u2018Okay, now it&#8217;s my turn.
