The Minnesota Wild are riding high into the Honda Center to face the Anaheim Ducks in a contest that will surely not be as exciting as their first two ended up being. Two 3-1 deficits, two timely goals to force overtime, two instances of Kirill Kaprizov turning superhuman and ending the game for a Minnesota win. The Wild were one of the most interesting teams through the start of the NHL last week and more eyes are on them tonight.
The Ducks had the unpleasantry of facing the Vegas Golden Knights for their first two games of the 2020-21 season.
