Minnesota is the biggest favorite on the Friday NHL slate in Sharks vs Wild: as of the afternoon of November 6, the Wild are 71c on Kalshi and 72c on Polymarket, with San Jose at 30c and 28c. Minnesota (11-3-3) leads the Central Division and is 4-0-1 at home, while San Jose (7-9-1) has lost three straight. Puck drop is 8:00 PM ET at Grand Casino Arena in St. Paul.
Minnesota carries about a 71% implied win probability into its first meeting of the season with San Jose, and the price has barely moved in eleven days. The Wild sit first in the Central with a plus-18 goal differential, the Sharks are minus-17, and the market prices the gap accordingly.
As of the afternoon of November 6, Minnesota is 71c on Kalshi and 72c on Polymarket, and San Jose is 30c on Kalshi and 28c on Polymarket. The two-cent gap is small, but it means a Sharks backer gets the cheaper ticket on Polymarket and a Wild backer gets it on Kalshi. Kalshi carries almost all of the moneyline volume, about $13.9K against roughly $270 on Polymarket.
The price has been set for a while. Polymarket had Minnesota between 63c and 66c from October 10 through October 25, jumped to 70c on October 26, and has held between 70c and 72c every day since. Kalshi, which listed the game on October 31, has stayed between 70c and 73c since November 1. The captures since Thursday afternoon show Kalshi flat at 70c to 71c and Polymarket moving from 70c to 72c. The sportsbook price is a touch richer: ESPN's scoreboard lists Minnesota at -270 at DraftKings, about 73% before the vig.
Minnesota (11-3-3, 25 points) leads the Central and the Western Conference standings. The Wild have scored 56 and allowed 38 in 17 games, are 4-0-1 at Grand Casino Arena and 7-3-2 on the road, and are 7-1-2 in their last 10 after road wins at Washington (5-1) and Philadelphia (4-2). Kirill Kaprizov has 15 goals and 26 points in 17 games, Quinn Hughes has 22 points (17 assists), and Matt Boldy has seven goals. Jesper Wallstedt has started 15 of 17 games and is 10-2-3 with a 2.06 GAA and .920 save percentage, per NHL.com season stats. ESPN credits Minnesota with the league's best team goals-against average at 2.24.
San Jose (7-9-1, 15 points) is sixth in the Pacific and has lost three in a row by a combined 14-4, including a 7-2 loss at Los Angeles in the Sharks vs Kings game on November 4. ESPN ranks the Sharks 29th in scoring at 2.53 goals per game and 26th in goals allowed at 3.53. Macklin Celebrini leads San Jose with 17 points in 15 games, and Will Smith has six goals. Yaroslav Askarov is 4-7-0 with a 3.29 GAA and .887 save percentage, and Alex Nedeljkovic is 3-2-1 at 3.09 and .899. Neither team had a confirmed starter listed by ESPN or the NHL as of Friday afternoon. Both teams play again Saturday, San Jose at Dallas and Minnesota at home against Tampa Bay.
Minnesota -1.5 is 50c on Kalshi and 49c on Polymarket, so the market rates a two-goal Wild win as a coin flip and leaves about 21% of the 71c on a one-goal or overtime result.

Minnesota's injured reserve is crowded, per ESPN's report as of November 6: Filip Gustavsson (hip), Jared Spurgeon (lower body), Brock Faber, Nick Foligno and Marcus Foligno are all listed. ESPN separately reported Faber's first practice since his September skull injury. San Jose has Alexander Wennberg and Igor Chernyshov (both upper body) on injured reserve, along with Quentin Musty and Kyle Keyser.
Kalshi lists anytime-goal props. Kaprizov to score is 52c, the only player above even money on the board, with Boldy at 44c, Joel Eriksson Ek at 35c, Celebrini at 33c and Smith at 26c. Kaprizov to score twice is 18c. Polymarket does not list goal-scorer props on this board.
