Why The Wild Could Cover The Spread

Minnesota has given up the fifth least goals in the NHL this season. They have the third highest save percentage as well. They have a great chance to have another good game in this one as well. The Blackhawks are the worst offensive team in hockey this year. They score just 2.42 goals per game. In the previous three games this year, the Wild have given up one, one and three goals against the Blackhawks. When Minnesota allows three goals or less, they have a record of 42-6-6. The wild can easily allow three goals or less against the Blackhawks and that will allow them to pull away.

Why The Blackhawks Could Cover The Spread

Chicago needs to accept their offensive woes. Luckily, the Wild have trouble scoring as well. The Blackhawks are expected to have Alex Stalock in goal for this game. He is one of the better goaltenders for Chicago. Stalock allows less than three goals per game and has a save percentage above .910. With him in net, the Blackhawks have a chance to keep this one close. They may not win this game, but they can easily keep it within one goal. The last time Chicago hosted Minnesota, the game went into a shootout. The Blackhawks are a better team at the United Center, and they can keep it close in this one.

Final Wild-Blackhawks Prediction & Pick

The Blackhawks are not doing well in the past 10 games. They are giving up a lot of goals and have not been scoring. The Wild should come in and win by two goals or more.

Final Wild-Blackhawks Prediction & Pick: Wild -1.5 (+105), Over 5.5 (-114)
