Carolina Hurricanes vs Winnipeg Jets Prediction
The Jets are going to put on a show here. The Jets are averaging 3.61 goals per game and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. Their defense is giving up 2.42 goals per game and they are going to lockdown here. The Hurricanes are averaging 3.32 goals per game but their offense isn't going to be finding that same type of success against a defense that is ranked 1st in the league. The Jets have all kinds of confidence right now with their offense, and it's going to be their offense that is the difference. Even if their defense were to give up four goals, I still believe they have enough offense to get the job done. Back the Jets on the money line.
