Minnesota Wild Betting Analysis
The Minnesota Wild had won six of seven games, before dropping their last two 5-3 to Calgary and 5-2 to Edmonton. They’re totally middle of the road in the NHL, ranking 18th in goals/game and 16th in goals against/contest. Their power play is slightly above average at 11th, but the PK is 17th.

They’re led by star forward Kirill Kaprizov, who is on a 14-game point streak, and is 10th in league scoring (34 points). After that, the offensive production dries up, with only Mats Zuccarello (26) and Joel Eriksson Ek (23) recording more than 20 points. Most likely Filip Gustavsson draws in the net, which is a good thing, because he’s won his last three starts, two of which he’s given up one goal apiece.
Vancouver Canucks Betting Analysis
During the Canucks really poor 4-9-3 start, they allowed the third most goals against per game and had the league’s worst power play. Since then, in their 8-3-0 run, they’re second in scoring, but 23rd in goals against.
Vancouver has won their last three games, all of which ended up going to overtime. They started the campaign 0-3 past regulation, but have won their last four in that department. The team has won their last five against Western Conference foes. They’re also 12-3 in their last 15 games when playing on two or more days rest.
