Canada’s team will be opening their series against Bruce Boudreau’s squad. With home-ice advantage on their side, Patrik Laine and the Jets will look to take an early lead from a Wild team that will be without the services of defenceman Ryan Suter. But the underdogs from Minnesota still have the potential to upset the high-flying Jets, who have yet to win a game in the post-season in franchise history.
