Blues vs Jets Prediction
The Jets won eight of the previous ten H2H encounters, including seven of the last eight. Only three of the last ten H2Hs went Over, including Game 1 of this series, but I don’t expect another high-scoring game. Eight of Winnipeg’s last ten games went Under. In Game 1, St. Louis scored three goals from just 17 shots, and there is no way Hellebuyck will have such a bad day at the goal again. Go with Under.
