Minnesota at Calgary

The Minnesota Wild were left for dead in the NHL in the early going recording just four wins in their first 21 games. They have really righted the ship and over their last eight games have suffered just a single defeat. The difference was a team that reached the five-goal mark just once, has reached it four times in their last eight games, so the offense has found a lot of productivity. The Flames have done well on the defensive end, but the Wild have had a tendency to create games that open up and become offensive, and I'd be surprised if that wasn't the case here. Calgary is good enough to win a wide-open game, and I like this one to go OVER the total.
