Minnesota vs Winnipeg: prediction for the NHL fixture
Minnesota take on Winnipeg in the NHL fixture on October 20. What to expect from this game? Our answer is in the prediction below.
Command Analysis
Minnesota Wild
USAThe Minnesota Wild may not have been very successful in the preseason, but they looked good in the first two matches of the regular season. First, the Wild beat Anaheim (2:1) and then triumphed over Los Angeles with a score of 3:2.
Minnesota played both games away from home. Kirill Kaprizov is yet to score a goal, but he has already earned points with two assists. The Wild are paying a lot of attention to their defenses and so far, this strategy has been paying off.
Winnipeg Jets
CanadaThe Winnipeg Jets, on the contrary, had a poor start to the season. The Jets were defeated in both games - they failed to cope with Anaheim (1:4) and San Jose (3:4). The Jets had serious problems on the defensive in the last season, but then they were able to compensate with successful actions in the attack.
Dubois didn't make an impression of a forward who can turn around the game by himself. Goaltender Hellebuyck has been unreliable, and the young Comrie is too inexperienced to replace Hellebuyck as the main goalie.

Minnesota have won two games away and are to play in front of their fans for the first time in the new season. They demonstrate solid play and quality actions on the defensive, which cannot be said about Winnipeg. The Jets make many mistakes in their zone and have conceded 8 goals in the first two games. The Wild are clearly in better form and should win here.
