Minnesota Wild was expected to be one of the biggest offsets in the current season after having an amazing performance during most of the regular season, however the absence of Kirill Kaprizov had direct consequences on their performance as they currently have one of the worst streaks in the Western Conference with 3 losses in a row. With those numbers in mind, they’ll face Boston Bruins next Sunday at 02:30 pm CST in the Xcell Energy Center.
For this game, the bookmakers’ odds are putting Minnesota Wild as the big favorites, but it’s totally worth noting that they haven’t been able to score more than 3 goals in regulation time since their 6-3 victory over New York Islanders. In addition, their recent loss against Utah Hockey Club (6-1) made evident that the Wild cannot be considered as a big contender for the championship this season.
On Boston Bruins’ side, this team was finally able to break a streak of 5 losses in a row including overtime after their most recent victory over Pittsburgh Penguins (2-3), a game in which they proved themselves to have interesting offensive associations between players like David Pastrnak and Cole Koepke. Despite this, the Bruins must try to win their second and last game of the regular season series against Minnesota Wild.

Our Minnesota Wild vs Boston Bruins Prediction
To conclude, even though Minnesota Wild is considered the favorite team to win this game, they really aren’t expected to show a good offensive performance in this game as they are currently depending on Matt Boldy, who scored 3 goals and gave 4 assists during the last 5 games of the Wild. With that in mind, Boston Bruins are expected to take advantage during the early instances of this game, therefore the pick for Minnesota Wild – Boston Bruins is: Tie No Bet 1st Period – Boston Bruins!
