In this Avalanche vs Wild Prediction, the Avalanche are coming as -130 road favorites. The Wild won game 3 to cut the Avalanche lead to 2-1 wins and held them into just one goal, after having conceded a total of 14 in the first two games. The Wild bring another defensive intensity at home ice, as they allow just 2.2 goals per game at home in the playoffs, so I expect a low-scoring affair today as we get deeper into the series. Take the under 6.5.
