Wild vs Ducks Prediction

The Wild have been hit or miss lately, and they’ve played a lot of hockey lately, with five of their last seven games going to overtime. However, the Ducks haven’t been able to close games, and they’ve allowed four or more goals in four of their last six games. The Wild have won nine of the last 10 games against the Ducks, and they’ve outscored them 16-3 in the last four games. There’s no reason the Wild shouldn’t continue their dominance over the Ducks, who have nothing to play for and have lost 19 times on the road. Give me the Wild and the PL for max betting value.
