Verdict
Colorado are the team in better form, and they have a serious rest advantage after sweeping Los Angeles while Minnesota went seven games with Dallas.
The Wild have not been too great on the road too in recent weeks, despite some successes against the Stars, so we are taking the Avalanche here.
