Dallas Stars vs Minnesota Wild Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 04/06/25

The Minnesota Wild have dropped 4 games in a row and 6 of their last 7, and things won’t get any easier when they welcome the Dallas Stars to town for a Sunday afternoon showdown. Minnesota is scuffling down the stretch, while Dallas is soaring with wins in 7 of its last 8 contests. Despite a 5-3 loss to the Penguins on Saturday, the Stars have been one of the more consistent teams in the league during the second half of the season. They seem primed for a deep playoff run behind arguably the best forward depth in the NHL, and are clicking at the right time. The Stars have also been strong on the road all season long, owning a record of 22-14-2 away from Dallas in 2024-25.

Minnesota is holding on to the second wild card spot in the Western Conference, but aren’t exactly playing their best hockey right now. The absence of Kirill Kaprizov still looms large, and offensive consistency has been tough to come by without him. It’s also worth mentioning that Dallas has had Minnesota’s number lately, winning 8 of the last 10 matchups between the 2 teams. Consider backing the Stars on the road in this one.
