Among the games that will close out NHL action on Wednesday, November 20, is the matchup between the Minnesota Wild and the Carolina Hurricanes. These two teams are poised to deliver one of the most closely contested games, thanks to Minnesota's strong performance in its most recent games.In this regard, it is worth noting that Minnesota Wild has won four of its last five games, with its last two victories coming against high-level opponents such as the Anaheim Ducks and Vegas Golden Knights.
However, it should be noted that they have relied heavily on Kirill Kaprizov and Matthew Boldy to score points, a situation that could end up being their biggest weakness in the final stages.Meanwhile, the Carolina Hurricanes finally managed to get a positive result after defeating the Boston Bruins 3-1, a result that allowed them to climb to the top of the Eastern Conference on goal difference.
Despite this, any result other than a victory puts them at high risk of being overtaken again by the New Jersey Devils, so this game will require a double effort to secure the win.
