St. Louis Blues vs Minnesota Wild Prediction
The St. Louis Blues continue to struggle on the offensive side, and it makes it hard to back them with confidence. The Blues have scored 2 or fewer goals in 6 of their last 10 games. The Minnesota Wild are good enough defensively to add to those struggles of the Blues. Also, the Wild are 7-1-2 on the road this season. This feels like a mismatch for the home team. Give me the Wild and the PL for max betting value.
