The Wild were tripped up 3-2 in a shootout against the San Jose Sharks at home Sunday. That splashed cold water on a modest 2-game win streak. Minnesota has had a power outage on offense lately, tallying just 7 goals across the past 5 outings, with 4 of them coming Wednesday at the Anaheim Ducks.
The Predators surprised the New York Rangers 2-1 last time out on Saturday as the Under cashed. The Preds are showing some signs of life after a slow start, winning 3 of their last 5 outings. The offense has picked up the pace with 3.0 goals per game (GPG) across the past 6 contests.
