Winnipeg Jets at Vegas Golden Knights odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Winnipeg Jets at Vegas Golden Knights odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Winnipeg Jets (5-3-0) keep their American tour going in Sin City where they will battle the Vegas Golden Knights (7-2-0) Sunday at 8 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Jets vs. Golden Knights odds, and make our expert NHL picks and predictions.

Despite being 1 of the newest franchises, Vegas has been a steady contender since making the Stanley Cup Final in its inaugural season. This season is no different as the Golden Knights sit in 1st place in the Pacific Division.

The Jets come in after a 3-2 overtime win Friday at the Arizona Coyotes. Despite 35 shots on goal, Winnipeg only managed 3 goals and if they want to take down the Golden Knights, they will need to convert more of these shots into goals on Sunday.

Jets at Golden Knights projected goalies

Connor Hellebuyck (4-2-0, 2.50 GAA, .925 SV%) vs. Logan Thompson (4-2-0, 1.69 GAA, .943 SV%)

Hellebuyck is 1 of the best goalies in the league early in the season. He has  already managed 1 shutout in 6 starts for the Jets.

While Hellebayck is one of the best, Thompson just might be the best. With a 1.69 GAA and 2 shutouts, the Golden Knights have counted on him to deliver. And he has so far.

Jets at Golden Knights picks and predictions

Prediction

Golden Knights 3, Jets 2

Moneyline

PASS.

It is too high to wager on the Golden Knights in this game.

Puck line/Against the spread

BET JETS +1.5 (-140).

Both goalies are great. This will lead to a low scoring game, and I do not see either team being able to pull away for a 2-goal victory.

While the Golden Knights lead the Pacific division with 14 points, the Jets are 2nd in the Central with 10 points. Both teams are solid and with this in mind, I do not want to bet either team to win by more than a goal.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 6.5 (-115).

This is the obvious play. Between Thompson and Hellebuyck, they have played in 12 games and 3 have ended in shutouts. This game will be an offensive struggle and the goalies will prevail in a low-scoring bout. The UNDER 6-5 (-115) is my favorite bet of this game.
