Minnesota enters this game 5-1-1 in their last 7 games and are trying to get themselves into a playoff spot in the western conference wild card race. Minnesota’s games have gone OVER 6.5 in 3 of their last 5 games.

Edmonton enters this game 4-3-1 in their last 8 games and have looked more like the Edmonton Oilers most people know a high scoring offense with suspect defense/goaltending. Edmonton’s games have gone OVER 6.5 in 5 straight games 4 of those 5 games went OVER 8.5.

Minnesota has won 9 of the last 11 games between these teams and historically play the Oilers very well. 4 of the last 5 games between these teams went OVER 6.5. This game has the feeling of a high scoring back and forth type game. Both teams play tomorrow with Edmonton facing their biggest rival Calgary.

Pick: Minnesota Wild ML
