Wild clinch a playoff spot with just 20 seconds left and put Fleury in for OT for maybe his final NHL appearance

The Minnesota Wild are going to the Stanley Cup Playoffs!

Down 2-1 to the Anaheim Ducks with under half a minute left and the Wild needed a goal to secure a point in the game and a spot in the post-season.

The stage is yours Joel Eriksson Ek:

With that point the Wild officially secure a spot in the post-season!

But the Wild weren't done just yet. With their season now secured and with goaltender Filip Gustavsson expected to be the team's starter once the playoffs start, head coach John Hynes saw a perfect opportunity for goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury and he took it.

Hynes elected to pull Gustavsson in favor of Fleury in what could potentially be Fleury's final NHL appearance. The Flower, as they call him, did not disappoint.

Check out some of these highlight reel saves in OT:

And just to give the game a true storybook ending, Matt Boldy closed the game out with a beauty enabling his team to absolutely MOB Fleury with a group hug.

That's hockey, baby!
