Minnesota at Chicago

Minnesota has clinched a playoff spot, but the Wild still have an outside chance to finish atop the Central Division and the Blackhawks can play the spoiler role as they otherwise have nothing to play for. The Wild had lost three in a row before a 5-3 win over St. Louis on Saturday and Joel Eriksson Ek is doubtful with a leg injury and he has 61 points in 78 games. Minnesota is 4-9 after scoring at least five goals their previous game and the home team has won 10 of the past 14 meetings. Alex Stalock is likely in net for the Blackhawks and he has played better than his 9-14-1 record indicates as he owns a 2.92 goals-against average and .912 save percentage. Take the Blackhawks.
