The first round of the NHL playoffs has delivered such a fantastic spectacle, as only two of the eight series were settled in four games. In this regard, it’s worth noting that the series between the Dallas Stars and the Minnesota Wild has been one of the best due to the solid performance of both teams that has led to multiple comebacks during the first five games.
However, it’s undeniable that the Minnesota Wild has been more solid than the Stars in the most important moments of the series, so they will have an irreplaceable opportunity to end the series at home in Game 6. With this in mind, Kirill Kaprizov and Matt Boldy are expected to keep up the good work, as they are the two best players on the Wild’s roster by far.
Meanwhile, the Dallas Stars couldn’t take advantage of playing at home in Game 5, so their chances of qualifying for the second round will depend on showing a great offensive effectiveness in this game. Nevertheless, it’s notorious that they have been fully dependent on Jason Robertson, as he has been the only player to shoot more than 20 times on goal throughout the series.

Our Minnesota Wild vs Dallas Stars Prediction
As can be seen, the Wild’s defensive performance has allowed them to increase their chances of competing for the Stanley Cup this season, so they are expected to keep following that pattern in Game 6 to avoid traveling back to Dallas.
To conclude, it’s a shame that one of these teams is close to being eliminated, as they have proven to have very competitive rosters during the whole season, but it’s a fact that the Stars were more irregular during the last part of the regular season. Therefore, the pick for the Dallas Stars – Minnesota Wild is: Race To 2 Goals – MIN Wild!
