    Obvious pick tonight: Wilds will win in regulation against Pens
    I see some great value here at 3.10 odds for Wilds to win in regulation.

    Here is my arguments for why:
    - Penguins Injuries is just limit them down for Defensive team like wilds.
    - Penguins is on a back to back
    - Zatkoff in Goal tonight as Fleury was in goal yesterday.
    - Odds are great for Wilds, this is wrongly set by the books.
    - Wilds was struggling a bit but they have won 2 in a row, and against red hot Canucks.
    - Wilds lineup looks very healthy.
    - Suter and Brodin should be able to shutdown or limited penguins only scoring threat, 1st line.
    - Minnesota has won the last 5 games in Penguins:
    01/08/2011 Sat MIN 4 PIT 0 -200 U 37 2610/31/2009 Sat MIN 2 PIT 1 -205 U 15 35
    11/18/2008 Tue MIN 2 PIT 1 -145 U 25 25
    12/08/2005 Thu MIN 5 PIT 0 120 U 32 22
    11/19/2003 Wed MIN 6 PIT 2 190 O 28 40
    12/14/2001 Fri MIN 5 PIT 2 -200 O 21 41

    However this should be taken by a grain of salt, as the teams look much different, however penguins have a history of always having it tough against Wilds.

    Look for Parise and Pominville to get a couple of goals.

    Liking this man! Seems like the type of game where the injuries finally catch up to them.

    One thing, the Wild go to OT a lot. This is due to them constantly playing close games. But with those odds I say take it. GL!!

      Awaiting odds but this looks like a massive trap.

      Firstly Harding is on IR Backstrom will be in goal for Wild and he has not been good. James Neal is back from suspension, a key forward for Pens. Small chance Malkin may play too.

          I was all set on picking the Pens in this game, and still want to. Like the fact that Harding is out and Neal is in. B2B no biggie, great home team against a mediocre away team, BUT...The NHL free pick has Penguins winning this game by David Lawrence. And I don't have his stats but you should fade this guy EVERY TIME! As the free picks are the worst. They have to be doing it by intent, leading people to lose money. Probably to win money by affiliate or something. You can't be that bad and lose that many games and still do a write up and recommend picks. So I'm really gonna wait on this.

            Good points guys! I missed Backstrom in net... You know despite the injuries, Penguins are doing alright. Backstrom really makes me wanna stay away from this. I'll give it some thought. Either way, not exactly an obvious pick...

                Aren't you the guy, who said earlier, Rangers will defeat Pens because of injuries?

                Oh... we saw how that one worked out.

                  Ok this does it, Penguins is just too deep, too good. I will stop betting against them.

                    Penguins Looks soo much better without Letang in the lineup.
                    Get ride of him and get another Jordan Staal and the cup is Penguins.

                    Go Pens!!

                        Can you imagine how good this team will be when they have a fully fit squad? Frightening.

                            Yeah in the regular season, a shame they cant carry it over to the playoffs.

                            Get ride of Letang, he just keeps messing up the defensive system with his cowboy style of hockey.
                            Thats the only tweak I would do, maybe a backup goalie, if vokoun is unavailable.

                                  Yes same line. Keep the chemistry, its already there.

                                  The swedish head coach got it right keeping most of the players playing with each other in NHL together.

                                    Considering who is coaching Team Canada I think this will be the case.
