Minnesota Wild 2.3 · Colorado Avalanche 4.0
Colorado Avalanche is the model’s call — Colorado Avalanche on the margin numbers, Colorado Avalanche on the form numbers. One power-play goal each side moves this projection by roughly half a goal.
Three things to watch
- Form gap. Colorado Avalanche is 90% over their recent sample; Minnesota Wild is 50%. Streaky teams tend to carry one more game than the math allows for.
- Net efficiency. Colorado Avalanche projects 70% from points-for vs points-allowed; Minnesota Wild sits at 56%.
