The Vegas Golden Knights and Winnipeg Jets meet Saturday in game 3 of the NHL West First Round Playoffs at the Canada Life Centre. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.

The Vegas Golden Knights are averaging 3 goals per game and are scoring on 0 percent of their power play opportunities. Mark Stone leads Vegas with 2 goals, Phil Kessel has 2 assists and Reilly Smith has 7 shots on goal. Defensively, the Vegas Golden Knights are allowing 3.5 goals per game and are killing 66.7 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Laurent Brossoit has given up 6 goals on 63 shots faced.

The Winnipeg Jets are averaging 3.5 goals per game and are scoring on 33.3 percent of their power play opportunities. Adam Lowry leads Winnipeg with 3 goals, Blake Wheeler has 2 assists and Kyle Connor has 13 shots on goal. Defensively, the Winnipeg Jets are allowing 3 goals per game and are killing 100 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Connor Hellebuyck has given up 6 goals on 56 shots faced.

The Golden Knights are 9-3 in their last 12 road games and 17-7 in their last 24 overall. The Jets are 5-1 in their last 6 home games and 5-1 in their last 6 Saturday games. The under is 16-7-2 in Golden Knights last 25 road games. The under is 38-14-4 in Jets last 56 overall. The Golden Knights are 1-4 in the last 5 meetings in Winnipeg and 4-1 in the last 5 meetings. The home team is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings. The favorite is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings.

We’ve seen some fireworks in the first two games of this series as the winner of both games has scored 5 goals. Seven of the last 10 games between the Golden Knights and Jets overall have produced at least 6 goals. The last 3 meetings since December are averaging 8 goals per game. I like the over in this spot with the low total.
