Gamethread: Wild vs. Predators (6:00 p.m.)

The two points up for grabs can mean a lot for the seeding in the playoffs, or even if one of these teams will make it to the post-season in the end. Minnesota can use a very good offensive punch from their forwards after netting just two goals against a mediocre Columbus Blue Jackets team. And the Predators were having a solid winning streak going before losing 7-4 to the St. Louis Blues yesterday afternoon.
