Canucks vs. Jets Prediction

I’m on the Jets here. I just think that the Jets are the better team and while Vancouver got the win over Toronto last time out, one win is not really going to move the needle for me that Vancouver’s issues have suddenly gone away. Vancouver has the talent and a lot of the same talent from the team that made the run at the playoffs last year. However, it hasn’t come together for Vancouver, and I think that the Canucks might be in trouble in this game against a Winnipeg team that’s been one of the best home teams in the NHL this season. I’ll roll with Winnipeg on home ice at the great price in this one.
