Our second game of NHL predictions has the St Louis Blues heading up north to take on the Minnesota Wild. Joel Hofer is the projected starter for the Blues, who are 2-7-1 in their last 10 games. St Louis is likely to be a seller at the upcoming trade deadline, and we may see some lineup changes. Pavel Buchnevich is tops in assists (23) and points (36) for the Blues.
Filip Gustavsson is the expected starter for the Wild, who are 7-2-1 in their last 10 games. Minnesota had its recent seven-game winning streak stopped last time out in a loss to the Utah Mammoth. Kirill Kaprizov is first in assists (40) and points (73) for the Wild.
St Louis is struggling and might try to collect assets. Minnesota should get back on track with the win.
Prediction: Wild win 5-2.
