Our second and featured game of NHL predictions has the Dallas Stars visiting the Winnipeg Jets for the second time this season. Jake Oettinger is the projected starter for this game. The Stars are 8-0-2 in their previous 10 games and look like one of the best teams in the league. Dallas is in the top 10 in goals scored, goals allowed, power play, and penalty kill so far. Jason Robertson is leading the team in goals with 18, while Mikko Rantanen is first in assists (26) and points (39) so far this campaign.
Eric Comrie is the likely starter for the Jets, who have been struggling without Hart Trophy winner Connor Hellebuyck. Winnipeg is trying to avenge a 5-4 loss to Dallas on October 9, but the Jets are 3-6-1 in the last 10 games. The Jets have struggled to find consistency this season, and that has really shown without Hellebuyck in the lineup. Kyle Connor leads the team in goals with 15, while Mark Scheifele is tops in assists (22) and points (36).
Dallas is on a roll, and Winnipeg is struggling. The Stars should pick up the victory.
Prediction: Stars win 4-2.
