MINNEAPOLIS — The Wild quickly hit the reset button after having their franchise-record 14-game point streak snapped earlier this weekend, holding off the Capitals 5-3 on Sunday afternoon at Xcel Energy Center while getting three regulars back in their lineup.

Matt Boldy scored a hat trick, twice converting off two setups from linemate Marcus Johansson, and goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 33 shots to win his seventh straight game.

Boldy tallied his first goal only 50 seconds into the first period, burying the rebound off a Johansson shot behind Lakeville's Charlie Lindgren. On his second shot, he polished off a give-and-go with Johansson at 4:36.
