Oilers at Wild
(NHL) Oilers (EDM) vs. Wild (MIN),
Money Line: 125.00 Wild (MIN) (Home)
Result: Loss
A bit perplexed by this numbers. Yes, it was a good homestand for the Oilers but now it's back on the road for Edmonton, which hasn't been so good lately with losses in three of the last four away. But the Wild has been playing pretty well lately, too, winning six of seven, \including three straight at the XCel Center in St. Paul. Work in goal continues to be strong, with Filip Gustavsson back in the nets tonight after posting some great marks to date (14-4-4, 2.08 GAA, .927 saves. His Wild mares are also going to be shooting at Cal Pickard, bit Stuart Skinner, in the Edmonton goal. Perhaps the fact the Wild peppered Start Skinner, who only saved 21 of 26 shots, in a 5-3 Minnesota win at Rogers Place on November 21 has something to do with Kris Knoblauch's choice in goal tonight.
