Minnesota Wild vs Los Angeles Kings Prediction: Will the Kings extend their streak?

Prediction for the NHL Minnesota Wild vs Los Angeles Kings match, which will take place on February 22. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Minnesota was finally able to win in regulation time. Recall that in 12 games in a row. The Wild could not do so - there were four victories outside three periods and eight more losses. However, the day before, they beat Nashville 4:3, scoring the winning puck 21 seconds before the final siren. Minnesota is eighth in the West standings and fourth in the Central standings. They have 65 points -- they're in the playoff zone but right on edge.

Los Angeles has steadily stayed at the top of the Western Conference standings throughout the campaign. They're in fourth place with 71 points and second in the Pacific Division standings. The Kings are likely to make the playoffs, but relaxing early is still not a good idea. By the way, they do not allow themselves that because they have a streak of four wins in a row. Los Angeles beat the struggling Arizona 6:5 in their previous meeting.

We think we should focus on the goals rather than the outcome. Both teams have been looking good lately - Los Angeles has four wins in a row, and Minnesota has two, but they will play with the support of their fans. The Kings are extremely high-scoring this season, and meetings involving them almost always delight us with scoring pucks. We suggest betting on a standard total over.
