Next Sunday night will bring a very attractive challenge for the Minnesota Wild, as they will face their second game in the regular season series against the Colorado Avalanche at 05:00 pm CST. For the aforementioned game, Minnesota will face a new opportunity to earn a valuable victory over the Avalanche, which would represent their eighth consecutive victory.
In this matter, it’s worth noting that the Minnesota Wild is the team with the best current momentum, but that hasn’t been enough to dethrone the Dallas Stars and the Colorado Avalanche from the top two spots in the NHL Western Conference. Despite this, their defensive performance is astonishing, as they haven’t conceded more than two goals since their 4-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks.
Meanwhile, the Colorado Avalanche immediately recovered after their shootout loss to the Nashville Predators, not being surprising enough to find out they have won their last four games in a row. Additionally, it’s also relevant to highlight that the Avalanche haven’t conceded more than three goals since their 6-3 loss to the New York Islanders, so this game against the Wild is expected to have a low scoring ratio.
