Two non-calls, a pair of goals in 1 minute, 12 seconds and a special-teams takeover instigated by 13 penalties.
That's what added up to the Wild's latest setback, a 4-1 slough to the Canucks on Sunday in front of 17,348 at Xcel Energy Center, a loss that extended the team's winless skid to three games.
But what that math meant in the standings was even grimmer.
After being only three points back of the playoff pace in the Western Conference last weekend, the Wild is now seven behind with a grueling schedule on deck.
"We looked at January as a homestand, and we haven't really done much [with] it. It's frustrating," winger Marcus Foligno said. "[But] you can't stop. We can still salvage it and get it back before the All-Star break, to make something out of it."
To do that, the offense has to be resurrected — especially the power play — and the penalty kill must be a steadying force.
All areas were in the spotlight Sunday, a start-and-stop game fueled by a parade to the penalty box by both teams.
The Wild was penalized eight times, surviving all but one test — a deflection by Elias Pettersson 9:20 into the second that opened the scoring.
