Winnipeg Jets Betting Preview

The Jets have won their last 10 games and look to push this streak further. They are coming off a 2-1 overtime thriller against the San Jose Sharks, which marked their fifth-straight home win.

Winnipeg was down early with a 1-0 deficit, but would later tie the game with a goal in the third period by Josh Morrissey. Mark Scheifele scored the game winning goal in overtime to end the Sharks’ chances at getting the upset.

The Sharks were more accurate in their shot selections, as they fired off just 18 compared to the Jets’ 35. The Jets did have an advantage with faceoffs, winning 51.7 percent of those.

The Jets are averaging 3.57 goals and are taking 28.4 shots per game. Their defense has allowed 2.38 goals and 27.9 shots from opposing teams each game. This is a comfortable margin and is more appealing than what the Senators put forth.

Ottawa Senators Betting Preview

The Senators have lost their last four games and will have a tough time trying to break that cycle here. Their most recent defeat was a 5-2 performance against the Montreal Canadiens. During this losing streak, they have given up four or more goals each game.

This was a close game after the first period, with the Canadiens leading 3-2. However, the Senators failed to provide any additional offense and their defense struggled the rest of the game. Tim Stutzle and Jake Sanderson provided the goals.

Both teams produced about the same amount of shot attempts, with the Senators firing off slightly more at 27. The Senators also had a good day for faceoffs, as they won 66.7 percent. However, the defense was poor here.

The Senators are accumulating 2.79 goals and are firing off 29.7 shots a game. On the defensive end, they are giving up 2.81 goals and 27.9 shots a game. This slightly negative ratio is not going to cut it against good offensive teams.

The best Winnipeg Jets vs. Ottawa Senators betting odds have been provided by MyBookie, revealing the Jets as slight favorites. The Jets are 18-9-0 on the road and the Senators are 16-8-2 at home.

With a current losing skid and a slightly negative ratio for goals scored and allowed, the Senators are not equipped to break out with a win over the Jets. These two met back in Ottawa in January, with the final score being 4-2 in favor of the Jets. Look for the Jets to find success.

Final Pick: Winnipeg Jets -130
