Minnesota Wild vs. Florida Panthers. The NHL Pick for this contest is Minnesota -135.

 

Though Florida is playing at home, this will be bad as they will be missing their first two goalkeepers as Sergei Bobrovsky was injured in Thursday’s triumph while Spencer Knight is still on injured reserve status.

 

The Wild won three of their last five while the OVER has cashed in four of Minnesota’s last six road matches. The prediction: Minnesota Wild will win 5-3.
