Looking to bounce back from a 5-2 loss to New Jersey on Saturday, the Minnesota Wild (41-28-5) seek redemption as they visit the Devils (39-29-7) at the Prudential Center tonight at 7 p.m. ET. Puck drop is set for 7 p.m. ET.
Minnesota has won six of its last nine games, staying in the Western Conference playoff race.

Goaltender Filip Gustavsson enters the matchup with a 2.57 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage over 46 games.
New Jersey struck early in Saturday's win, scoring just 28 seconds into the game, and never looked back. Jesper Bratt recorded a goal and an assist in the victory, bringing his season total to 20 goals. The Devils, however, remain without captain Nico Hischier, who has been on injured reserve since January. Star forward Jack Hughes is also questionable after sustaining an arm or shoulder injury earlier this month.
Devils goaltender Jake Allen made 45 saves in New Jersey's recent 2-1 win over Columbus and is expected to start again tonight. The Devils' power play, ranked fourth in the NHL at 28.1%, could be a key factor against a Wild penalty kill that sits at 71.7%.

Wild vs. Devils Predictions and Picks
"New Jersey has won three straight series meetings, and this season the Devils are a solid 25-13-4 when playing on one-day rest. The club's recent puck-possession numbers are solid, and New Jersey is 7-for-its-last-20 with the man advantage. Minnesota has played just 1 road games since March 7 and is just 1-4-0 on its last 5 games away from home. The Wild have had fewer than 24 shots on goal in 6 of their last 8 games. New Jersey (-150) is the value side here." — Skip Snow, USA Today Sportsbook Wire
"New Jersey was able to pick up a big win against Minnesota on the road on Saturday, and they will look to make it back-to-back wins here. The Devils are 17-13-5 at home this year, while the Wild are 22-11-3 on the road. Minnesota has lost three of their last four games and they are at risk to lose their third spot in the Central, as the Blues are now tied with them. We have seen this Minnesota team really struggle to score over the last week, and I think we are going to see a lower scoring game here, so I like the under in this contest." — David Racey, PickDawgz
"The Minnesota Wild are 22-14 away from home so far this year. For Minnesota Filip Gustavsson may be getting the start in net. The New Jersey Devils are 17-18 at home this season. The Devils have played Minnesota tough in the past, beating the Wild in the last three games played against them. Both teams are missing their top players, and offense has been inconsistent at best. With a combined O/U mark of 61-83-5, back these two to go under the total in this matchup. New Jersey will do just enough on home ice in the 3rd period or overtime and get a victory on Monday night. Final Score Prediction, the New Jersey Devils win 3-2." — Anthony Allen, Picks and Parlays
