The Vancouver Canucks and Winnipeg Jets meet Monday in NHL action at the Bell MTS Place.
The Vancouver Canucks need a win here to snap a four game losing streak. The Vancouver Canucks are averaging 2.9 goals per game and are scoring on 16.7 percent of their power play opportunities. Brock Boeser leads Vancouver with 12 goals, Quinn Hughes has 19 assists and Elias Pettersson has 60 shots on goal. Defensively, the Vancouver Canucks are allowing 3.6 goals per game and are killing 81.8 percent of their opponents power plays. Braden Holtby has given up 35 goals on 328 shots faced while Thatcher Demko has given up 45 goals on 455 shots.
The Winnipeg Jets look to build on their four game winning streak. The Winnipeg Jets are averaging 3.5 goals per game and are scoring on 23 percent of their power play opportunities. Nikolaj Ehlers leads Winnipeg with 11 goals, Mark Scheifele has 17 assists and Kyle Connor has 60 shots on goal. Defensively, the Winnipeg Jets are allowing 2.7 goals per game and are killing 79.2 percent of their opponents power plays. Connor Hellebuyck has given up 41 goals on 500 shots faced and Laurent Brossoit has given up nine goals on 139 shots.
The Canucks are 1-5 in their last 6 road games and 0-4 in their last 4 overall. The Jets are 5-1 in their last 6 home games and 4-0 in their last 4 overall. The over is 4-1 in Canucks last 5 Monday games. The under is 7-3-1 in Jets last 11 overall. The Canucks are 1-9 in the last 10 meetings in Winnipeg. The road team is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings. The favorite is 19-7 in the last 26 meetings.
It feels like these teams are heading in different directions and it doesn't help that the Vancouver Canucks don't win in Winnipeg or beat the Jets period over the years. The Jets have won two of the three meetings this season against the Canucks and have won 17 of the last 22 meetings overall. You can make a strong argument that the Jets should be bigger favorites here, especially on their home ice. I'll back the Jets and cheap price.
