Wild vs Canucks Prediction
In their previous meeting earlier this season, the Wild won 5-2 at home and are 8-2 in their last 10 meetings against the Canucks. Under is 7-2 in their last 9 meetings.
In this Wild vs Canucks Prediction, the Wild are coming as -150 road favorites. The Wild have been the far better team this season with five more overall wins than the Canucks, who have been terrible at home, with just three wins this season and are playing their second leg of a back-to-back. On top of that, they have been struggling lately, as they are 1-7 in their last 8 games, while on the other hand, the Wild despite their two losses in their last three games, they had been one of the hottest teams in hockey with an 8-2 record in their last 10 games. The Wild have also been dominating the Canucks in their recent meetings so I expect them to get the job done on the road today. Take the Wild on the moneyline.
