Minnesota Wild vs Dallas Stars Prediction

The Minnesota Wild and the plus money is worth a look because they’ve been one of the best teams in hockey, and they’re at home. Hard to turn down this price. With that said, the Dallas Stars have had their share of success, and they’re the more trustworthy defensive side. Also, the Stars have won 6 straight Games aginst the Wild, and that includes outscoring them 23-6 in the last four Games. It’s hard to argue with the one-sided History between the Stars and Wild. Give me the Stars on the road and the reasonable price.
