Minnesota Wild vs New York Rangers

The Minnesota Wild look like the clear pick here. The market has them as the favorite with odds that imply a mid-50s percent chance, and these odds have been shortening over the last 12 hours, signaling steady backing. Draw and Rangers are longer shots by comparison, indicating less market support for a neutral or opposing result. In hockey, the home side and straightforward backing tend to hold, so Wild are the safer bet in this matchup.
