The Minnesota Wild have bounced back nicely after a dreadful start. After turning up on the right side of just seven of their first 21 games, the Wild have now done so in 15 of their last 24. It all starts between the pipes where they have shaved .31 goals a game since their poor start. The defending Stanley Cup Champion Penguins have hit a bit of a rut and have found themselves on the right side of just two of their last eight. The Pens have an elongated history of coming back strong defensively after a good defensive effort. The Pens are now 45-22-1 to the under after a game allowing two goals or less, while the Wild's inconsistent offense has been a marker for the under. After the Wild tally five or more, their next game shows them at 33-15-7 to the under. I like this one to go UNDER the total.
