Adnan
4-1 Wild
GWG: Zach Parise
The Wild have gone on a strong run to give themselves a little bit of breathing room in the battle for the final playoff spot. A home game against an Ottawa team on the back-end of a back-to-back? Would be shameful for the Wild to lose.
Record: 43-34, 48 Points
1 Exact Scores, 4 Game Winning Goals
Ary
4-1 Senators
GWG: Bobby Ryan
Minnesota’s also had a rough year, but it’s not because of a lack of talent. The Senators roll over the Wild in this one, with Bobby Ryan continuing to enjoy his return w/ Zibanejad and Hoffman
Record: 38-39, 45 Points

Table is tilted far enough in Minnesota's favour, I bet they get caught looking past this one.

4-3 Wild
GWG: Zach Parise
Remeber when Zach Parise changed the pronunciation of his last name from Pah-Ree-Zay to Pah-Ree-Zee? Or did I dream that? Both are possibilities.

The Sens win a wild game against the Wild with a number of poor goals going in each way.

4-1 Wild

This loss would surely eliminate Ottawa from post-season contention if they weren't already eliminated earlier in the week.

Ottawa came back to win in OT against this team last time. It won't happen again.

3-2 Wild
GWG: Mikko Koivu
The Wild are able to get revenge after they blew a late lead against the Senators a couple week ago. Try to watch for defenseman Jared Spurgeon: that's the kind of player Ottawa needs.
