NHL Wild vs Knights Picks and Odds, April 29, 2025

It’s time for Game 5 in Las Vegas and we got you covered for Wild vs Knights picks. After losing back-to-back games, the Knights won Game 4 in overtime. It was crucial for them to not go down 3-1 in the series and go back home tied up.

The Knights started off the series solid with a 4-2 Game 1 win but quickly disappeared. They lost the next 2 games each by a score of 5-2. Vegas has been out shotting Minnesota this series, including 46 shots in Game 4.

Game 4 started off slow for the Knights. They got on the board 1st in the game but quickly were tied up. The Wild took the lead in the 2nd period, but the Knights took the lead back mid-way through the 3rd to let it get tied right back up. Luckily, they were able to seal the win a little of two and half minutes into overtime.

Goalie Adin Hill got the win for the Knights. He saved 29 of 32 shots on goal and had a .906 save percentage. Hill will be in net again tonight for Vegas back at home.

Minnesota will look to steal another road game tonight

The Wild have definitely showed they belong here. Winning Games 2 and 3 were gigantic for their chances at winning this series. You have to be able to win on the road if you are going to go far in the playoffs.

Game 4 was a toss-up in regard to who was going to win. Both teams showed good offense and defense which rightfully brought the game to overtime. Minnesota was out shot last game and definitely something they will need to work on for Game 5.

Goalie Filip Gustavsson is expected to start again. Gus managed to save 42 shots last game, although as we know it wasn’t enough. He has seen over 30 shots on goal in the last 3 games so he will be ready for the peppering again. Let’s check out the odds and get into the picks.

This game is critical for Vegas to win, so I lean that way for a side. I really think they pull this game out and take the series lead back to Minnesota. I also think we see the same thing we have all series and that’s goals.

There have been 7 goals in each of the last 3 games and 6 goals in Game 1. I really don’t see this changing much with how these offenses are clicking. Hill hasn’t looked the greatest at times and the same goes for Gustavsson. Gusbus did hold the Knights to 2 goals in back-to-back games we can’t forget.

We’re going back to the same guy because what’s not broke, don’t fix. Ryan Hartman for 2 or more shots on goal for -165 and then 3 or more shots on goal for +170. Hartman has had 3 or more in 3 out of the 4 games this series. He just had 5 last game after coming off a miss.

Another guy I like again is Tomas Hertl. He has had 3 or more shots on goal in 3 out of the 4 games this series. His 3 or more shots on goal is +100 and we’re sprinkling for him to score at +190 as he also has 3 goals.
