Jets Look to Bounce Back

The Jets have played well overall this season, but they are coming off with a disappointing loss. The Jets faced off against the Vegas Golden Knights and they ended up losing 4-3. They gave up two goals in the third period and that was the difference. Two games ago against the LA Kings, they scored only one goal while the defense gave up four goals. In this game, the defense is going to need to be better. The Jets are averaging 3.88 goals while their defense is giving up 2.5 goals per game. The offense is ranked 2nd in the league while the defense is ranked 2nd in the league. Kyle Connor has scored 13 goals and added 16 assists. The Jets will take on the Blues, Sabres, Blackhawks, Blue Jackets, and Bruins after this game.


The Stars Dominated the Last Game

The Stars faced off against the Colorado Avalanche in the last game and they scored five goals and they ended up winning by two goals. The Stars scored two goals in each of the first two games. Mason Marchment had a strong game scoring two goals and adding an assist. The Stars are averaging 3.45 goals while their defense is giving up 2.68 goals per game. The offense is ranked 9th in the league while the defense is ranked 5th in the league. Matt Duchene has scored  12 goals and added 15 assists so far this season. 

Why the Stars Will Beat the Jets

  • The Stars have won seven of their last eight home games against Western Conference opponents.
  • The Jets have lost five of their last six road games following a road loss.
  • The favorites have covered the puck line in five of the Stars’ last six games at American Airlines Center.
  • The Jets have failed to cover the puck line in four of their last five road games against Central Division opponents.
  • The Stars have won the second period in five of their last six games as home favorites.

Dallas Stars vs Winnipeg Jets Prediction

Give me the Jets to bounce back. The Jets are averaging 3.88 goals per game and they are going to run up the score here. I am not sold on the Stars defense and that is going to really let them down here. The Jets are going to score at least four goals here, and it’s going to be enough for them to get the job done. Back the Jets on the money line to cash here. This is a strong play.
