Best Bet For Monday (May 11th): NHL Playoffs Predictions
Colorado Avalanche vs Minnesota Wild
Start Time: 8:00 PM EST
The Western Conference Second Round series between the Colorado Avalanche and the Minnesota Wild has gotten much more interesting because the Wild dominated on their home ice on Saturday night, beating the league’s top team by a count of 5-1. Not only that, but perhaps most importantly, it’s caused a goaltender controversy in Colorado.
In a case of “what have you done for me lately”, Avs goalie Scott Wedgewood was pulled during a shaky performance on Saturday night, and may be replaced by backup Mackenzie Blackwood for tomorrow’s Game 4. This despite Wedgewood playing exceptionally throughout this playoff run.
With the momentum on their side, playing on their home ice, where they were one of the strongest home teams in the league this season, and the uncertainty around Colorado’s goaltending situation, I like the Wild to even up the series in Game 4.
Minnesota on the moneyline is my best bet to kick off the week.
