Nashville Predators at Winnipeg Jets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Nashville Predators at Winnipeg Jets odds and lines, with expert NHL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Nashville Predators (40-30-8) travel to meet the Winnipeg Jets (43-32-3) Saturday. Puck drop from Canada Life Centre is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (ESPN+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Predators vs. Jets odds, and make our expert NHL picks and predictions.

The Predators posted a 3-0 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes last time out Thursday, its 2nd consecutive win on home ice. As such, Nashville keeps its hopes alive for a wild card spot in the Western Conference.

The Preds have 88 points with 4 games remaining in the regular season, 1 point back of the Calgary Flames and Jets for the final card in the West. A big question is whether D Roman Josi (upper body) can return Saturday after being out since March 18.

The Jets have registered back-to-back wins over the Detroit Red Wings and New Jersey Devils by a combined score of 12-3, and Winnipeg could really be in the driver’s seat for a playoff spot with a win against Nashville.

Predators at Jets projected goalies

Juuse Saros (31-22-7, 2.71 GAA, .918 SV%, 2 SO) vs. Connor Hellebuyck (34-25-2, 2.57 GAA, .918 SV%, 3 SO)

Saros turned aside all 33 of his shots in a 3-0 win against the Hurricanes Thursday, his 2nd shutout of the season. He is 2-1-0 with a 2.00 GAA and .926 SV% with the shutout in 3 starts in April, keeping Nashville’s postseason hopes afloat with hot play.

Hellebuyck was on the short end of a 3-1 loss against the Calgary Flames Wednesday at CLC, stopping 32 of 35 shots. He has allowed 3 or fewer goals in 11 consecutive starts, but he has just 6 wins to show for his efforts due to a lack of offensive support lately. The Jets have scored 3 or fewer goals in 9 of his past 11 outings.

Predators at Jets picks and predictions

Prediction

Jets 3, Predators 2

Moneyline

The JETS (-175) come with a bit of a steep price tag, but Winnipeg is the play in this crucial Western Conference battle.

Hellebuyck stopped 18 of the 20 shots he faced in a 3-2 OT win in Nashville in the most-recent meeting March 18. He also stopped 39 of 41 shots in a 2-1 loss Jan. 24 in the Music City. Hellebuyck has been strong against the Predators (+145), and he’ll do so again Saturday.

Puck line/Against the spread

The PREDATORS +1.5 (-175) are a little pricey on the puck line in this road matchup. Nashville is 9-4 in the past 13 games as an underdog on the puck line. I like Winnipeg more on the money line, but if you need a little insurance on the road team, the puck line isn’t a bad play on Nashville.

Over/Under

UNDER 5.5 (+100) is the best play on the board in this matchup, which is likely to have a playoff-like feel.

The Under is 5-1-1 in the past 7 games for the Predators, while going 4-0-1 in the past 5 games against teams with a winning overall record.

For the Jets, the Under is 9-1-2 in the past 12 games inside the Central Division, and 7-3 in the past 10 meeting with the Predators. The Under is also 4-1 in the past 5 meetings in Winnipeg, too.

Calgary Flames at Winnipeg Jets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Calgary Flames at Winnipeg Jets odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Calgary Flames (36-27-15) and Winnipeg Jets (43-31-3) meet Wednesday at Canada Life Centre. Puck drop is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET (ESPN+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Flames vs. Jets odds, and make our expert NHL picks and predictions.

The Flames lost as -429 home favorites 4-3 vs. the Chicago Blackhawks Tuesday. Calgary is 2 points behind the Jets for the final Wild-Card spot in the Western Conference.

The Jets won as -111 home favorites 6-1 vs. the New Jersey Devils Sunday. LW Nikolaj Ehlers scored twice for the Jets, who have won back-to-back games and 4 of their last 6.

This season’s series is tied 1-1 with the Under hitting in both meetings. Winnipeg won as a +123 home underdog as the Under (5.5) cashed in the most recent meeting Jan. 3.

Jacob Markstrom (22-20-10, 2.98 GAA, .890 SV%, 1 SO) vs. Connor Hellebuyck (34-24-2, 2.56 GAA, .918 SV%, 3 SO)

Markstrom has faced the Jets twice this season, going 1-1-0 and allowing 5 goals on 48 shots, good for a 2.51 GAA and .896 SV%. He’s 6-15-2 in 23 career starts vs. Winnipeg with a 3.20 GAA and .890 SV% (575 saves against 646 shots).

Hellebuyck has faced the Flames twice this season, going 1-1-0 and allowing 5 goals on 70 shots, good for a 2.53 GAA and .929 SV%. The 2020 Vezina Trophy winner is 13-5-1 in 21 career games (20 starts) vs. Calgary with a 1.93 GAA and .935 SV% (548 saves against 586 shots).

Flames at Jets picks and predictions

Prediction

Jets 3, Flames 2

Moneyline

BET JETS (-130).

Winnipeg takes advantage against inferior competition and is 34-15 in its last 49 games vs. teams with a losing record. The Jets seemed to have turned a corner lately and have won 4 of their last 5 when closing as a favorite. Calgary has been underwhelming recently and its last 3 wins have all been by just 1 goal. Look for the Flames to fall flat trying to bounce back after an embarrassing loss last time out.

Puck line/Against the spread

PASS.

The Flames’ last 2 losses have been by just 1 goal. Calgary +1.5 (-225) should hit Wednesday, but there is no need to pay the higher price on the puck line when Flames moneyline may be the safer play. Bet Calgary moneyline and/or the total instead.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 6 (-105).

The Under is 36-13-3 in Winnipeg’s last 52 games and 9-3 in Calgary’s last 12 on the 2nd night of a back-to-back.

The Under has hit in the last 4 head-to-head meetings in Winnipeg and Wednesday’s matchup should be another low-scoring game.

Devils at Jets projected goalies

Devils at Jets picks and predictions

Prediction

Jets 3, Devils 2

Moneyline

BET JETS -105. 

The Jets have dominated the Devils lately. The Devils are 2-9 in the last 11 meetings overall and 1-4 in the last 5 meetings in Winnipeg. This should be the perfect opportunity for Winnipeg to even the season series. Although the Devils are 5-0 in their last 5 Sunday games, the Jets are still the bet.

Puck line/Against the spread

AVOID.

The line here is far too rich no matter which team you think will cover, avoid here and place you money on either the Over/Under or moneyline.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 6.5 (-120). 

The Over is slightly hotter for the recent matchups between these teams, as the Over is 3-1-1 in the last 5 meetings in Winnipeg, but the Under is still the better bet. For Winnipeg the Under is 4-0 in their last 4 Sunday games and 23-5-2 in their last 30 playing on 1 day of rest.

Red Wings at Jets picks and predictions

Prediction

Jets 3, Red Wings 1

Moneyline

PASS.

Detroit has not won 3 straight games since a 5-game win streak from Feb. 9-Feb. 16, but there is no need to pay the higher price on the Winnipeg (-250) moneyline when the Jets should win by multiple goals. Bet the puck line and/or total instead.

Puck line/Against the spread

BET JETS -1.5 (+105).

Detroit is susceptible to getting blown out and 3 of its last 4 losses have been by multiple goals. Winnipeg has hit rock bottom lately after ruining a good start to the season but should be able to hold on to its final Wild Card spot and secure an easy win by multiple goals over the Red Wings. The Jets have a clear advantage in net and should be able to take advantage of a Detroit team that struggles to string together good performances.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 6.5 (-140).

The Under is 6-0 in Detroit’s last 6 road games and 5-1-1 in its last 7 after a win.

The Under has gone 8-2-1 in Winnipeg’s last 11 after a loss by 3 or more goals and should hit again Friday as Hellebuyck helps Winnipeg stay in a Wild Card spot.

Jets at Hurricanes picks and predictions

Prediction

Hurricanes 3, Jets 2

Moneyline

PASS.

Carolina (-220) should be able to end Winnipeg’s 2-game winning streak, but the Hurricanes are being slightly overvalued on the moneyline considering their poor play as of late. Bet the puck line and/or total instead.

Puck line/Against the spread

BET JETS +1.5 (-140).

It’s not likely that the Jets will win their 3rd straight game, but they should be able to keep it close vs. a Hurricanes team that has struggled to score lately. Carolina has scored more than 2 goals in just 3 of its last 8 games and a lower-scoring game would give the Jets a better chance to cover as the underdog on the puck line. Look for Winnipeg to cover the puck line a 3rd game in a row and as an underdog for the 4th straight time.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 5.5 (+105).

The Under is 48-20-5 in Winnipeg’s last 73 games and 21-8 in the Jets’ last 29 on the road, according to Covers.com.

The Under has hit in the Hurricanes’ last 4 games after a loss by 3 or more goals and is 8-1 in the last 9 meetings between these teams in Carolina. The Hurricanes’ recent struggles on offense should help the Under hit once again Tuesday vs. a Jets team that is just 18th in goals per game this season.

Marc-André Fleury (19-13-3, 2.81 GAA, .905 SV%, 2 SO) vs. Connor Hellebuyck (27-19-2, 2.62 GAA, .919 SV%, 3 SO)

Fleury is 9-7-3 in 19 road starts this season and has allowed 50 goals on 594 shots, good for a 2.61 GAA and .916 SV%. The 3-time Stanley Cup champion is 28th in SV% this season amongst goaltenders who have played at least 20 games.

Wild at Jets picks and predictions

Prediction

Jets 3, Wild 2

Moneyline

BET JETS (-145).

Winnipeg was unlucky to lose vs. San Jose last time out, giving up a goal with 11 seconds remaining in regulation to force overtime. The Jets should be able to bounce back Wednesday vs. a Wild team that has struggled in Winnipeg recently (3-9 in the last 12 meetings) and is 0-4 in its last 4 games on the 2nd night of a back-to-back.

Puck line/Against the spread

PASS.

The Wild should be able to keep it close in a low-scoring game as Minnesota has not lost by multiple goals since dropping a 5-1 decision vs. the Vegas Golden Knights Feb. 9. The Wild +1.5 (-230) should hit, but Minnesota is being slightly overvalued on the puck line. Bet the moneyline and/or total instead.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 5.5 (-110).

The Under has hit in Minnesota’s last 7 road games and is 7-2 in the last 9 meetings between these teams in Winnipeg. With 2 of the last 3 Vezina Trophy winners projected to start in net, Wednesday’s matchup should be another low-scoring affair.

Jets at Oilers picks and predictions

Prediction

Jets 3, Oilers 2

Moneyline

BET JETS (+135).

Both teams have only won 4 of their last 10 games, but Winnipeg is being slightly undervalued in this spot due to its current 4-game skid. Edmonton owns the 11th-worst home record this season at 15-2-5 and may be due for a letdown after an impressive win vs. Toronto last time out. Look for Winnipeg to come out extra focused Friday and end its losing streak behind a strong performance from Hellebuyck.

Puck line/Against the spread

PASS.

The Jets +1.5 (-180) should hit, but there is no need to risk almost twice your potential profit on the puck line when Winnipeg should win straight up. Bet the moneyline and/or total instead.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 6.5 (+110).

The Under is 20-6 in Winnipeg’s last 26 road games and 21-7-4 in the Jets’ last 32 vs. teams with a winning record. The Under has hit in 5 of Winnipeg’s last 7 games after allowing 5 or more goals in its previous contest and is 6-0-1 in the last 7 meetings between these teams in Edmonton.

Kings at Jets projected goalies

Pheonix Copley (17-4-2, 2.74 GAA, .901 SV%, 1 SO) vs. Connor Hellebuyck (26-18-1, 2.46 GAA, .923 SV%, 3 SO)

Copley was summoned off the bench Sunday against the Rangers, and he allowed 2 goals on 14 shots. He has been sharp in the month of February, going 2-1-1 with a 2.09 GAA and .920 SV% with a shutout in 5 starts and that lone relief appearance.

Hellebuyck coughed up 5 goals on just 26 shots in a loss against the Colorado Avalanche last time out Friday. The goal total was the highest since he allowed 6 goals Jan. 10. He has a poor 2-3-0 record in 5 starts in February, but he still has a solid 2.60 GAA and .925 SV%. He has received just 2.4 goals per game (GPG) of offensive support this month.

Kings at Jets picks and predictions

Prediction

Jets 3, Kings 2

Moneyline

The JETS (-145) are moderate favorites, but playing Winnipeg comes with plenty of risk. It has had a lot of trouble lighting the lamp lately, and Copley will certainly make it difficult for the Jets offense to snap out of its funk.

Still, the Kings (+125) have managed just 1 win in the past 5 meetings, while going 5-12 in the past 17 trips to Winnipeg.

Puck line/Against the spread

The Kings +1.5 (-210) have been steamed up out of range. And the Jets -1.5 (+170) are anything but a slam-dunk to win, as Winnipeg has dropped 5 of the past 6 games overall, while total just 9 goals during the span.

PASS.

Over/Under

The UNDER 5.5 (+115) is worth a play at plus-money, especially since Copley has been playing so well, and the Jets offense has been struggling to score.

The Under is 9-2 in the past 11 meetings in this series, with the Under going 5-1 in the past 6 meetings at Canada Life Centre.

Avalanche at Jets picks and predictions

Prediction

Avalanche 3, Jets 2

Moneyline

BET AVALANCHE (-110).

Colorado has lost 3 straight games vs. Winnipeg and should come out extra focused Friday in order to bring that streak to an end. The Avalanche have scored 10 combined goals over their last 2 games, while the Jets have scored just 8 over their last 4 contests. Back the team that has been better on offense lately and will be motivated by triple revenge.

Puck line/Against the spread

PASS.

Winnipeg should be able to keep it close in a low-scoring game, but Jets +1.5 (-270) is too high of a price to pay for a team that has struggled on offense lately. Bet the moneyline and/or total instead.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 5.5 (-105).

The Under is 19-5-2 in Colorado’s last 26 road games and 20-7-2 in the Avalanche’s last 29 vs. teams with a winning record. The Under has hit in 4 of the last 5 meetings between these teams in Winnipeg and is 19-8-1 in Colorado’s last 28 games after a win.

Prediction

Islanders 3, Jets 2

Moneyline

BET ISLANDERS (-115).

The last time the Jets defeated the Islanders was a 3-1 road win as -130 favorites Dec. 4, 2018. New York has dominated Winnipeg in recent games and has won 4 straight meetings by multiple goals. The Jets have struggled in away games lately and should let down vs. the Islanders after upsetting the Rangers on the road Monday.

The Jets +1.5 (-260) should hit in a low-scoring game, but Winnipeg is being slightly overvalued on the puck line. Bet the moneyline and/or total instead.
