Playoff watch: Wild on the outside looking in (for now)

Record: 36-30-6

Current playoff position: Second wild card

Games remaining: 10

This week: at Lightning, at Panthers, at Devils, at Islanders

Notables: Arizona has come out of nowhere and dethroned Minnesota from a wild-card spot this week. The Coyotes have just two losses in regulation in last 13 games and are inching closer to their first playoff appearance since the 2011-12 season. Of Arizona’s final 10 games, only four of them are against current playoff teams. For reference, the Wild play against eight current postseason teams in their last nine games.
