I’m on the Jets here. I get the allure of a home underdog, but the Jets have owned this matchup this season and over the last few seasons, and I just trust Winnipeg wherever this team takes the ice. The Kraken can have their moments here and there, but I think in the end, the Jets get the job done here, so give me Winnipeg on the road.
