Minnesota Wild vs LA Kings Prediction

The LA Kings are coming off a nice shutout win over the Predators and have been comPetitive all season, but they’re also on the end of a back to back. The Minnesota Wild have also been tough to bet against this season with their 8-1-2 record, and they’ve been consistent defensively. The Wild have allowed three or fewer goals in eight of their last nine Games. Doubt the Kings find success on the end of a back to back. Give me the Wild and the reasonable price.
