Next Tuesday night's NHL fixture will bring a spectacular clash between the Minnesota Wild and the Edmonton Oilers, teams that have delivered strong performances and are competing for top spots in the Western Conference standings. Despite this strong form, the odds favor the Oilers in this home game, which makes sense given the Wild's inconsistent recent results on the road.
Nevertheless, it shouldn’t be ignored that the Oilers lost two of their last three home games, conceding four or more goals per game. With that in mind, Mike Babcock should find a way to avoid having his team rely too heavily on Connor McDavid, Evan Bouchard, and Leon Draisaitl, the current leaders in scoring and assists.
Meanwhile, the Minnesota Wild lead the Central Division, but they have only a one-point advantage over the Utah Mammoth. Despite that strong overall performance, the Wild lost three of their last four road games, so expectations aren’t high for a win in this game, especially after conceding five goals in their last game in Canada against the Winnipeg Jets.
