Vegas Golden Knights vs Minnesota Wild Predictions 2/9/2023

 

The matches on Wednesday were not included in the analysis, and the Minnesota Wild traveled to Dallas to face the division-leading Stars, who had 68 points.

 

The Wild wanted to avenge their devastating 3-2 loss to the Arizona Coyotes last Monday.

 

Prior to the All-Star break, Minnesota won two straight games, defeating the Philadelphia Flyers 3-2 in overtime and the Buffalo Sabres 3-2 in a shootout.

 

Arizona was undoubtedly undervalued by the Wild, who lost a 2-1 lead in the third period. The Coyotes were given 36 shots, and they received 35 in response.

 

On Wednesday, the Wild and Colorado Avalanche were tied for third place in the Central Division, 10 points behind Dallas and 7 points behind Winnipeg.

 

Minnesota ranked 11th in goals against and 20th in goals for in the league (2.84). With 33 saves against the Coyotes, Marc-Andre Fleury (2.88 GAA;.905 SV%) dropped to 16-11-3 on the year.

 

Due to Filip Gustavsson’s confirmation for Wednesday’s game against Dallas (11-7-1; 2.26 GAA;.922 SV%), the seasoned goalie should take the net on Thursday in Minnesota.

 

  • The Minnesota Wild is 3-2 in their last 5 matches against the spread.
  • Minnesota is 13-11 in their road matches against the spread.
  • The totals went OVER in 2 of Wild’s last 5 matches.

Vegas Golden Knights vs Minnesota Wild. The NHL pick for this game is the Vegas Golden Knights.

 

The Wild are in a difficult situation since they are playing on the second night of a back-to-back and are returning from a difficult road game against the Dallas Stars, the best team in the Western Conference.

 

Bet on the Golden Knights here at a profit. Vegas was having a lot of trouble lately, losing seven of its last nine matches overall, so the Golden Knights need to start winning soon.

 

Logan Thompson made four consecutive starts without a victory, and that run will soon come to an end. In three of their last four meetings with the Wild, the Golden Knights prevailed, tallying six goals in two of those triumphs.

 

The Vegas Golden Knights will win to a predicted score of 5-2.
