Red Wings present challenges for Wild
The Wild look to extend their home winning streak to 5 games when they tangle with the Detroit Red Wings. The Wild are making a push for the playoffs, despite being in last place in the Northwest division.
Sporting a 25-22-4 overall record and a 6-10-0 mark within the division, the Wild aim to knock the Red Wings (14-2-1 in the division) for a loss.
Oddsmakers like the Red Wings in this one, opening the line at 110 in favor of Detroit. They are 33-13-5 this season, while the Wild are 25-22-4. The total is 19-26-6 to the OVER in Wild games. This game is set at an early low of 5.5.
After being held to 1 goal in a loss against the Stars, Detroit fans expect their offence to get on track at Xcel Energy Center. Star forward Pavel Datsyuk has been held without a point for three straight games. Detroit's averaging just 2 goals or less over this current four-game stretch.
Minnesota, on the other hand, are home to shake off a loss last time out against Columbus. They were 125 favorites and ended up on the wrong end of a 4-3 score, in a game that went over the closing total.
