In this article, we will formulate a Blues vs Jets prediction for this NHL game on Monday, April 7, at Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg, MB. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this NHL matchup.
St. Louis Blues Betting Preview
The St. Louis Blues (43-28-7, 45-33 ATS) are currently the hottest team in the NHL after winning 12 consecutive games. The Blues were on a three-game homestand where they defeated the Red Wings, Penguins, and Avalanche, each by a one-goal difference. St. Louis is 4th in the Central Division Standings with 93 points and is 7th in the Western Conference with the same number of points as the Oilers, who are 6th.
The Blues score 3.04 goals per game on average (12th), while they concede 2.82 GPG (12th). This season, Robert Thomas leads the team with 75 points (21 G and 54 A). Jordan Kyrou has 65 points (33 G and 32 A), while Dylan Holloway chips in with 63 points (26 G and 37 A).
Jordan Binnington (27-21-4) is expected to start for the Blues at the goal on Monday against the Jets. The 31-year-old is allowing 2.69 goals per game this year with a .902 SV% and three shutouts.
Winnipeg Jets Betting Preview
The Winnipeg Jets (52-21-4, 39-38 ATS) won four of the last six games, three of which were on the road. Following a four-game road trip, the Jets returned home for a three-game homestay, during which they lost to the Kings and Hockey Club and beat the Golden Knights. Winnipeg is at the top of both the Central Division Standings and Western Conference with 108 points, three ahead of the Dallas Stars.
The Jets average 3.39 goals per game this year (4th), while they allow 2.34 GPG (1st). Kyle Connor leads the team with 91 points (38 G and 53 A). Mark Scheifele contributes 83 points (38 G and 45 A), while Nikolaj Ehlers has 63 points (24 G and 39 A).
Connor Hellebuyck (43-12-3) will likely take his place in the cage for the Jets on Monday against the Blues. The 31-year-old is allowing 2.04 goals per game this year with a .924 SV% and seven shutouts.

Blues vs Jets Prediction
The Jets won eight of the previous ten H2H encounters, including five of the last six. This season, the Jets lead the series 2-1; they won 3-2 and 4-3, both times in St. Louis, while the Blues won 4-1 in Winnipeg. The Blues are the hottest team in the league, and the Jets will not have an easy job here. Winnipeg does have the strongest defense in the NHL, but I am backing the visitors to score three or four goals on Monday. St. Louis won eight of the last 11 games on the road, so I won’t be surprised if the Blues win. I am opting for the Over, though.
