ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) -- Matt Foy and Aaron Voros filled in well for Minnesota's missing offensive threats.
Foy scored for the first time in more than two years, Voros and Brent Burns added goals for the second time in two games, and the Wild beat the Colorado Avalanche 4-1 Sunday.
Stephane Veilleux also scored for Minnesota, which won for the fourth time in 12 games and moved past the Avalanche atop the Northwest Division. The Wild did it without injured forwards Pavol Demitra and Mikko Koivu.
James Sheppard, who centered a line with Foy and Voros in the Wild's makeshift lineup, had two assists for his first career multipoint game.
The fourth-line trio logged the three lowest ice-time totals for the Wild, combining for just 23 minutes, 26 seconds of action.
"We're just three young guys out there crashing and banging and trying to put pucks in the net," Foy said. "Aaron provides some size and Sheppard provides the skills and the smarts on the line. All three of us just clicked well."
