The Wild are trying to get back to the playoffs this year and that is a challenge the Wild are going to have to face in this game here. The Wild have dropped 2 games straight and that has been a major issue for the Wild as they are heading into this game here against the Hurricanes who are holding onto a playoff spot by the skin of their teeth. What else does not help the Wild is they have lost 2 games straight and that definitely does not help them out.

The Wild defense has been decent as you can tell by the record of Devan Dubnyk who has picked up 28 wins for the team. Dubnyk has ended up getting a total of 91.2% of the shots saved, but he has ended up giving up only 2.59 goals a game on the year.
The Hurricanes are holding onto a wild card spot right now for the Eastern Conference and that is going to make it quite a bit harder for the Hurricanes to lose a game. Thankfully for the Hurricanes they are playing at home and that will make it a little bit easier for the team to come in with some momentum and go on the duck hunt again like they did in the game against the Penguins.

Petr Mrazek is the goalie who has won the most games for the Hurricanes on the year with a total of 19 wins on the season. He has saved 90.9% of the shots that have been sent towards him on the season. He has ended up getting a 2.50 goals against a game average.

The Hurricanes are going to be playing some great hockey in this game here and that will definitely help the Hurricanes out in the game. The Wild, have been playing decent defensively, but the offense for the Wild is missing and that will make it difficult for the team to bring home a win in this game here as the Hurricanes are pushing hard to win and lockdown their playoff berth. Final Score Prediction, Carolina Hurricanes win 3-2.
