Minnesota are in 7th place in the Western Conference standings with 30 points to their name. The team finally made it into the playoffs zone, and they will be looking to strengthen their standings.

Kirill Kaprizov has chalked up 34 points since the start of the season.
Edmonton are the direct competitors of their hosts, they are currently occupying the 6th line in the table.
