Minnesota Wild vs. Vegas Golden Knights preview

The red-hot Vegas Golden Knights roll into the Xcel Energy Center riding a three-game win streak, setting up what promises to be a defensive chess match against the Minnesota Wild.

Vegas's dynamic duo of Jack Eichel and Mark Stone have been lighting up the scoreboard, combining for an impressive 41 goals and 107 assists this season, while the Wild's Matt Boldy and Marco Rossi have quietly put together solid campaigns with 45 goals and 69 assists between them.

The real story here might be the battle between the pipes, with Vegas's Adin Hill (.907 save percentage) squaring off against Minnesota's Filip Gustavsson, who's been a wall with 23.4 goals saved above average.

Both teams have been stingy lately - the Knights have allowed just six goals in their last three games, while the Wild have given up only five in their last four.

Keep an eye on Vegas defenseman Alex Pietrangelo, who's been a force at both ends of the ice, while Minnesota's Brock Faber continues to emerge as one of the league's most promising young blueliners.

The Wild's home-ice advantage at the 'X' could be crucial - they'll need every edge they can get against a Knights team that's been dominating the Pacific Division.

This matchup has all the makings of a playoff-style slugfest, with both teams fighting for crucial points as the regular season winds down.

Given how these teams match up defensively, don't be shocked if this one turns into a goaltenders' duel.
