Chicago enters this game 0-2-1 in the preseason so far and are expected to start a lot of opening night players but will still have some AHL players in their forward group as well as defense and goalies.

Minnesota enters this game 2-2 in the preseason with one of those wins being an 8-5 win at home when the Wild played a lot of their starters. Minnesota is icing what will be very close to their opening night roster except for two injured players in Matt Boldy and Jacob Middleton.

Minnesota took care of business against the Jets at home and the Wild have the clear lineup advantage in this matchup against their division foe.

Pick: Minnesota Wild -1.5
