Minnesota still managed to end their losing streak of three matches, beating Vegas (4:2). Finally, Kaprizov was able to prove himself by scoring the puck, thereby leveling the score. Goalkeeper Talbot should also be commended for having saved 38 out of 40 shots. This victory was critical, as Wild are already 2-3 behind in the series and any defeat would be relegated to the Stanley Cup. Prior to this, the “Savages” showed not the best game in defense, because of which they suffered devastating defeats.
Florida still managed to stay in the playoffs for at least one more match. The home team defeated Tampa (4:1). The hero of the meeting can be considered the goalkeeper Knight, who, thanks to his skill, kept the hope of the Panthers. Before that, the team was not doing well, they managed to win only one victory in the series in overtime (6:5). Defender Huberdeau earned the most points with three assists. But the Panthers are still on the verge of being eliminated from the Stanley Cup, as they are inferior in the series (2:3). More todays NHL predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
