The Winnipeg Jets will put their near-flawless home record on the line tonight vs the St. Louis Blues. The Jets are 20-5 SU at the MTS Centre this season, winning nine of their last 10 games in their barn.
- Winnipeg is 6-2 SU in its last 8 games.
- The total has gone UNDER in four of the Blues’ last five games on the road.
- Winnipeg is 8-1 ATS in its last nine games vs St. Louis.
The Jets will be getting an added boost to their top line with Mark Scheifele returning to the squad tonight. Scheifele has been on IR for the last six weeks due to an upper-body injury and has notched 38 points in 38 games. But it’s not like the Jets have needed him lately as Winnipeg is 11-5 SU in his absence and is tied for the Central Division lead with Nashville.
St. Louis has been doing its best to keep pace with the Jets and Predators in the divisional standings, going 5-2 SU in the last seven games. But while the Blues have kept up, they haven’t performed well vs the ’Peg, going 1-7 SU in their last eight games in this matchup and being outscored 27-13. It’s also worth noting that Winnipeg shut out St. Louis 5-0 on December 17.
The total opened at 5.5 and although trends point toward an UNDER, the OVER may be the more profitable route for bettors. The Jets are the highest-scoring team in the NHL at home, averaging 3.8 goals per game, while the Blues are coming off a blistering win vs the Avalanche in which they notched six goals.
