Ottawa is a weak offensive team and has lost six of eight. Ottawa is #21 in the NHL in goals scored, and #22 on the power play. It's their third straight road game, losing the first two, and the offense has tallied just 14 goals the last eight games. Minnesota is a talented team that is not in a good mood, in an angry, late season slump. The Wild is third in goals scored, eighth in goals allowed, and #11 on the power play. Minnesota is 9-4 after allowing five goals or more in their previous game and this is a great spot for the home team to bust out of their slump. Back Minnesota.
