The Minnesota Wild has opened some eyes by the way they have come out of the gate. The Wild is 9-2-2 through 13 games and is plus 12 in net goals. Minnesota has really shown up in front of the net and on the defensive end. Opponents have not scored more than two goals in eight of the 13 games, and just three in two other games. The Ducks have lost three straight games and overall they have started rather poorly. They are -12 in net goals in the early going. The offense is averaging right around two goals per game on the season. It is tough to get wins when you don't score. Minnesota has dominated this series as they are 15-1 against the Ducks in the last 16 meetings. Make the play on Minnesota.
