Despite finishing the regular season with the third-most points in the Western Conference, the Wild will be the road team against their Central Division foes, who finished with the second-most points in the conference. That means Minnesota will host Games 3, 4 and 6 (if necessary) while playing the others in Dallas.
The Wild have not advanced past the first round of the playoffs since 2015.
