Top Cappers News


The Minnesota Wild will be missing their top offensive weapon, Kirill Kaprizov, which makes it tough to expect a high-powered performance from them in this matchup. Kaprizov's absence leaves a significant gap in their scoring capabilities, especially against a formidable opponent like the Colorado Avalanche.

One clear area of concern for Minnesota is their special teams play. Colorado holds the edge in power-play efficiency, converting at a respectable 22.8% (14th in the NHL), while the Wild are lagging behind at 19.1% (21st in the league). The penalty kill statistics further highlight the disparity, with the Avalanche ranking 22nd with a 77.6% kill rate, compared to Minnesota's poor 70.7%, which places them 29th overall.

Given these factors—combined with Colorado's offensive depth and Minnesota’s struggles without Kaprizov—the Avalanche are in a strong position to secure the win. Betting on Colorado to come out on top feels like the smart play here. Take Colorado ML
