PREVIEW
The Minnesota Wild went up to Canada mid-November last year and left Winnipeg with a 5-1 loss. They are now underdogs for this match, but the situation does not merit that tag.
The Winnipeg Jets are 13-12-4, including 9-4-0 on home ice, but results have not gone their way recently. On the other hand, Minnesota come in with a 20-7-3 mark, including an impressive 10-3-2 on their travels and are hot, riding a 7 game winning streak.
Minnesota are giving up just 2 goals per game on the road, but their current scoring form is excellent, netting at least 4 in all but one of their last 5 matches.
Minnesota's 7 game winning streak is even more impressive because they were underdogs for no less than 5 of those matches, and only one of the games went into extra time.
Winnipeg had their 4 game winning streak halted by Detroit, who thumped them 7-1 on Saturday.
BETTING VERDICT
Tremendous price on the Wild for this one, all things considered, and I will suggest a play on Minnesota to win this one, OT included.
The Pick :
Minnesota Wild
