Brian Engblom (659 career regular season games, three Stanley Cups) speaks with Minnesota Wild center Matt Cullen, who is playing in the 1,000th regular season contest of his NHL career tonight. The one-time Cup-winner discusses that impressive milestone, but also the more current matter of the Wild’s recent struggles.

Update: Cullen happened to have a great 1,000th game, by the way. He scored a goal and tallied the shootout game-winner as the Wild avoided an ugly collapse to beat San Jose 5-4 (SO).
