Avalanche vs. Wild Picks

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

  • Under (4 Units)

The Avalanche and Wild both played under the total in two of their last three games. Colorado averages 4.09 goals per game. They averaged 3.33 goals per game in their last three games and converted 11 percent of their power play chances. They are facing a team that killed 100 percent of their penalties in their last three games and gave up three total goals. The Wild average 2.92 goals per game. They averaged four goals per game in their last three games and converted 22 percent of their power play chances. They are facing a team that killed 100 percent of their penalties in their last three games and didn’t give up a goal. Don’t expect these teams to score enough goals to push the score over the total. The Avalanche and Wild played under the total in two of their last three meetings.
