See Picks & Statistics For The GameThe Vegas Golden Knights head to Minnesota tonight to take on the Wild. Both teams are off to hot starts this season, ranking in the top of their divisions. This will be the first time these 2 teams faceoff this season.
Minnesota is 20-6-4 to start this year and 2nd in the Central Division. They have started off great and Kirill Kaprisov so a huge reason. The Wild are 8-4-1 at home and come into this game off a win over the Flyers Saturday. They are 7-3-0 in their last 10 game also.
The Wild rank in the middle of the league offensively. They are 13th in goals scored and 15th for shots on goal per game. Their power play isn’t the greatest, converting only 19.2% of the time. They make up on defense though.
Tied for 1st in the league, Minnesota only allowed 2.5 goals per game. They do allow almost 30 shots on goal per game, so their goaltending has been top notch. We will see goaltender Filip Gustavsson tonight. He has a 14-5-3 record with a 2.24 GAA and a .922 save percentage.
Vegas will pose a big threat for Minnesota tonight
The Knights are 19-8-3 and are in 1st place in the Pacific Division. They just lost yesterday to the Oilers and are looking for a bounce. The team is 7-2-1 in their last 10 games and are 8-5-3 on the road this season.
This team is dangerous on offense. They rank 5th in goals scored, averaging 3.5 per game, and 8th for shots on goal with 30.5 per game. The Knights has the 5th best power play in the league as well.
Vegas has decent defense in their game. They rank middle of the league for goals allowed and shots on goal allowed per game. Their penalty kill is also in the middle, only killing of 78.7% of the time.
In goal today, we’re expected to see Ilya Samsonov in net. He’s 6-3-1 this season with a 3.16 GAA and a .896 save percentage. Samsonov can be a little leaky, so the Knights will need to protect him. Let’s check out the odds and get into the picks.

This should be a great game. We have 2 good goaltenders in net and 2 teams who are playing so well. I do think the Knights are going to have the edge here. Both teams practically have the same record for their respect home and away records.
The key for the Knights is going to be getting on the board early. They average almost 3.5 goals per game but will be faced with that Wild defense. I think they can find creative ways to score as they are ridiculously skilled. If they can get on the power play, the Wild have a horrible penalty kill, so a great way to get on the board
We should see a low scoring game here, so I also lean the under. It’s going to be a hard-fought battle, but the Knights should get the W. This is the 2nd game of a back-to-back for both teams, so we may also see some rust on offense.
I do like Kirill Kaprisov to get his shots on goal this game. It is valued at -108 for him to record 4+ shots on goal. He has hit this number in half of his last 10 games and also 57% of the time vs the Knights, including his last 3 straight.
