Montreal at Minnesota

This is the second straight road game for Montreal and the second of a back-to-back spot after upsetting the defending champs last night in St. Louis. It's also their third game in four days, and Montreal is 16-35 after scoring 3+ goals in two straight games. They face a rested Minnesota squad that is in revenge-mode after losing the last game at Montreal, 4-0. The team was frustrated after the loss and held a players-only meeting afterward. The Wild is working on two days of rest and is 29-15 after allowing 3+ goals for two straight games, plus 28-13 after two or more consecutive losses. After playing six of the last seven games on the road, look for a big effort by the angry and rested home team. Play Minnesota.
