Jets vs Blues Prediction
St. Louis comes into this contest as the hottest team in the NHL, but they will be on the road against one of the top teams in the league here. The Blues are 20-14-4 on the road this year, while the Jets are 28-6-4 at home. Winnipeg has lost two of their last three games and they need to be careful, as Dallas is just three points behind them in the Central. The Jets have been one of the top defensive teams in the NHL this season, but they have allowed four goals in two of their last three and will face a St. Louis team that has scored ten goals in their last two games. Take the over here.
