It is not the worst of ideas to support the underdog in a matchup between the two division leaders from the Western Conference, especially in one that is very difficult to predict. More so if the outsider is at their best! The Wild have yet to formally secure a spot in the Playoffs, but they are only moments away from doing so after going twenty one games without a regulation defeat and winning eight of their last eleven away games. The Pittsburgh Penguins' victory over the Nashville Predators on Thursday secured a spot for the Golden Knights in the upcoming playoffs, but they are currently on a two-game losing skid and have won just once in their previous three home games. It is ideal to pick a Minnesota win since they have more impetus to win.
