Money Line Pick for Avalanche vs. Wild
- Colorado Avalanche ML (4 Units)
These are two of the hottest teams in the league, but the Avalanche have the edge here. They are playing very well offensively and scored nine goals in their last three road games. They’re also playing well on special teams, converting over 16 percent of their power play opportunities. The Wild aren’t very good at killing penalties, and they’re not playing as well defensively, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Avalanche.
Minnesota won’t be as successful offensively because they’re not as good offensively and barely score three goals per game. They have been better on special teams, converting over 25 percent of their power play opportunities. The Avalanche are great at killing penalties, and they’re playing great defense, giving up only four goals in their last three road games, so expect them to keep Minnesota’s offense in check. Take Colorado on the money line.
Over/Under Pick for Avalanche vs. Wild

The Avalanche and Wild both played under the total in two of their last three games. Colorado averages 4.09 goals per game.
