Our third and featured game of our NHL predictions has the Winnipeg Jets looking for a split of the season series against the Minnesota Wild. Connor Hellebuyck is the probable starter for the Jets, who are 3-5-2 in their last 10 games. However, Winnipeg has won three consecutive games after an 11-game losing streak. Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor are tied in goals (22), assists (32), and points (54) so far.
Filip Gustavsson is the projected starter for Minnesota, which is 4-2-4 in its previous 10 games. This includes defeats in the Wild’s last two games entering this divisional clash. Despite the losses, Minnesota has at least been getting points in most of its games. Kirill Kaprizov leads the team in assists (27) and points (52) so far this season.
Winnipeg is trying to salvage something out of this season. However, Minnesota should pick up the victory at the Grand Casino Arena.
Prediction: Wild win 4-3.
