This is the goalie comparison using Sportlogiq's tracking technology.  

 

Mike Kelly in the clip (highlights):   'The  Wild were sunk by the worse goaltending in the league.  The Wild are one of the best defensive teams in the league, the Canucks are one of the worse.  When taking shot quality into consideration Markstrom turns into a top-5 goalie saving the Canucks almost 1 goal every 2 games.  Stalock nearly drops out of the top-50 costing the Wild goals against.  I'd have Kakhonen ready on deck because frankly I'm not sure the Wild can win with the 2 guys ahead of him on the depth chart so why hesitate'

His predictions.  He gives the edge to Minnesota on offence. The Wild have a big advantage on defence as top-5 in the league while the Canucks are far from that.  Special teams to Vancouver and Markstrom in net by far.  Predicts a Vancouver win because the Wild are so outmatched in net with them having the worse duo in the league.

Ferland is reported healthy and will be ready for the MIN series. We signed him for playoff hockey. He's gotta play. Wild have some big bodies in Greenway,Staal,Foligno.

Roussel-Gaudette-MacEwen

Ferland-Beagle-Sutter

 

Gotta have guys in the lineup to keep the other team honest
