Command Analysis

Minnesota Wild

Minnesota need a final push to secure their spot in the playoffs. At the moment, the Wild are in 5th place in the standings with 72 points to their name. Lately, however, they have struggled to find their form and suffered defeats in the last two games.

First, the Wild lost at Columbus in a shootout (2:3 SO), and then got crushed by Nashville at home (2:6). Dean Evason's side shows poor defensive performance, especially on road trips. As such, the Wild will be looking to collect maximum points in all of their remaining home games.

Boston Bruins

Bostonhave been sitting in 7th place in the East for a long time, but they can't improve their position. The Bruins are in decent form and often demonstrate solid performance in back-to-back games.

After a defeat to Los Angeles (2:3 ОТ), the Bruins celebrated success over Chicago (4:3) and got the upper hand over Arizona (3:2).
