Calgary Flames vs. Minnesota Wild Prediction

I’m leaning towards Minnesota here. I get the case to be made for an underdog in some spots, but the Calgary Flames just continue to struggle offensively and the goaltending hasn’t been good enough to save them, although it’s hard to win hockey games scoring 0 goals. Minnesota’s burned a lot of money already this season, but the Wild have enough here to get the edge over Calgary here. Give me the Wild.
