Wild Have Home Ice Advantage

The Minnesota Wild will have the home ice advantage this weekend, as they bid to upset the odds against the Pacific Division leaders.

The Wild have been inconsistent throughout the season, as evidenced by their 7-7-4 record. Meanwhile, they have suffered three regulation-time defeats across their last ten.

The Wild were last in action earlier this week, as they suffered an overtime loss at home against the San Jose Sharks.

Ducks Chasing Response

The Anaheim Ducks have made a solid start to the Pacific Division, and they currently sit top of the standings after 16 rounds of games.

Their consistency catches the eye after winning eleven of their opening 16 games. Meanwhile, no side in the division has a better offensive record than the Ducks at this stage.

However, a return to form will be required this week following a heavy 4-1 loss on the road against the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday.

Ducks vs. Wild NHL Picks

The Minnesota Wild have been too inconsistent so far this season, and that makes them a dangerous proposition this weekend.

Therefore, the away win for the Ducks could be the logical angle. Their chances are enhanced after winning 42% of their previous away games against the Wild.
