Minnesota has beaten Chicago 10 times in a row and the Blackhawks have scored a total of only 15 goals in those 10 games, including a 4-1 loss to the Wild on Dec. 3 in the only meeting this season. The Blackhawks are on a current four-game losing streak and three of them were shutouts. Both teams are playing their first games following the All-Star break and the Wild have won four of their past seven games although they will attempt to snap a two-game skid. Filip Gustavsson will be in net for the Wild with a 13-13-2 record and Petr Mrazek is likely for Chicago. Mrazek is 12-19-1 with a 2.92 goals-against average. Chicago is 2-10 its past 12 Wednesday games and it has won only 11 of its past 62 games against Central Division opponents. Take the Wild as a Max Play.
