Jets vs Golden Knights Prediction

Both teams are tied 1-1 in their two meetings this season, with both games having taken place in Winnipeg. The Jets won by 4-1 and the Knights by 4-3 in overtime and the Knights are 8-2 in their last 10 meetings.

In this Jets vs Golden Knights Prediction, the Golden Knights are coming as -190 home favorites. The Jets are still fighting for a playoff spot in the West, while the Knights have clinched, so all the interest is one-sided here. The Jets are 7-3 in their last 10 games and the Knights are 5-1 in their last 6, but they have not incentive here and this line is too high. I will take the Jets and the +160 price in this one.
