Panthers vs Jets Prediction
The Jets are 6-2 in their last 8 meetings against the Panthers and are 3-1 in their last 4 meetings in Winnipeg.
In this Panthers vs Jets Prediction, the Panthers are coming as -125 road favorites. The Jets have been in very bad form, having lost five straight games, having scored two goals or less in that span. They have been weaker than the Panthers both offensively and defensively, while also having a weaker penalty kill. The Panthers managed to end a small two-game losing streak and I am not high on them on the road, but I simply cannot back this Jets team in their current form. Take the Panthers to win.
