Informative action at the top of the Western Conference is set for March 6, as the Vegas Golden Knights host the Minnesota Wild at T-Mobile Arena.
Vegas remain at the top of the Pacific Division, but they have suffered five regulation defeats in their last ten. Meanwhile, the Wild will be looking for an eighth win in eleven.
The Vegas Golden Knights have been in cruise control so far this season, as they have eased to the top of the Pacific Division.
They have suffered a division-low 19 defeats in regulation this term, but five of which have been suffered in their last ten. Alarmingly, they have won just four of their last ten.
But, Bruce Cassidy’s team have been dominant at the T-Mobile Arena, going 14-8-7. Confidence would have been gained from their latest outing, coming back from 3-1 down to beat the Detroit Red Wings in overtime.

The Minnesota Wild have been one of the standout teams in the Western Conference in recent weeks, winning seven of their last ten, and suffering just two regulation defeats across the same period.
Only the top two in the Central Division have scored more goals than Minnesota in 2025-26.
Their offensive strength was on full display last time out, recording a 5-1 home win over the Tampa Bay Lightning. Matt Boldy was a creative spark in the victory, registering three assists.
| TOTAL | Golden Knights | Wild | DRAWS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WINS | 42 | 22 | 19 | - |
| GOALS | 231 | 120 | 111 |
The Minnesota Wild’s recent form will make them a very interesting value play this week. They have excelled on the road this term, and their eye-catching offensive numbers ensure that they have the quality to unsettle the hosts.
