St. Louis at Minnesota

The Minnesota Wild have now won eight of their last ten games. The margins have been shrinking however, and after winning the first three by a 14-1 count the Wild have now not won any of their last five by more than a goal and have required an extra session to win two of them. The Blues have lost their last six that have gone beyond regulation, so they are right there but haven't been getting over the top. They have gone 2-2 in their last four outscoring the opponent in the four games and are 4-0 on zero days rest in their last four. The Wild has been among the NHL worst teams playing with zero rest as they are 2-12 in their last 14. I like St. Louis in this one.
