Minnesota at Chicago

Minnesota is fierce on defense at #9 in the NHL in goals allowed and third in penalty killing. This is the end of a three-game trip for them and the Wild are 6-2-2 UNDER the total on the road, plus 9-3-2 UNDER against a team with a winning record. First place Chicago is winning a lot, ranked #2 in the NHL in goals allowed and #1 in penalty killing. One night after their eight-game winning streak ended with a 3-2 loss to the New York Islanders, Chicago rebounded Sunday with a 2-1 victory over Calgary, part of a 6-1-4 run UNDER the total. The UNDER is 9-3-1 in the Blackhawks' last 13 home games and when these teams meet the UNDER is 3-1-1 in the last five meetings. Only one way to go here, so play the UNDER.
