Minnesota at San Jose
Minnesota has won the past five meetings, including 5-2 on Nov. 7. The Wild have won six of eight and had their four-game win streak snapped in a 6-1 loss to Colorado on Thursday night. They had scored 19 goals in their previous four games. San Jose has lost 13 of 16, and the Sharks have averaged just 1.9 goals in their past 10 games, including a 2-1 loss at Utah last night. Now the Sharks have to play back-to-back, and they have lost 14 of 22 home games while Minnesota has won 15 of 21 on the road. San Jose is last in the Pacific Division, and it hasn't beaten the Wild since Dec. 22, 2022. Look for Minnesota to bounce back from Thursday's loss and take the Wild.
