Winnipeg Jets vs Dallas Stars

Head-to-Head: Jets 0-3 Stars

How to Watch: US TV: Victory+; ESPN+. Canada TV: TSN3.

Time: 8 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)

Our final game of NHL predictions has the Winnipeg Jets trying to avoid the season-sweep against the Dallas Stars. Connor Hellebuyck is the expected starter for the Jets, who are 6-2-2 in their last 10 games. Mark Scheifele has nine points Winnipeg’s last 10 games.

Jake Oettinger is the projected starter for the Stars, who are losers of seven of their last nine games entering this matchup. Dallas has clinched a postseason berth but will want to start playing better before the games really start to matter. Jason Robertson has 49 assists and 89 points to lead in those categories for the Stars.

Winnipeg has sprung to life late in the season. However, Dallas should rebound with a win.

Prediction: Stars win 4-2.
