Dallas Stars - Winnipeg Jets: NHL match betting tip

Current form

Dallas experienced serious problems in the first round of the playoffs, especially at the start of the series with Colorado. After a crushing defeat in the first match, the team wrested two victories in overtime with great difficulty, and then continued to show unstable results, alternating wins with losses. Nevertheless, due to the excellent play in extra time, the Stars finally managed to defeat the Avalanche with a score of 4:3.

The team started the quarterfinal series with Winnipeg on the road, where in the first match they prevailed in regular time with a score of 3:2. Once again, striker Rantanen showed an amazing game, scoring a hat-trick in the second match in a row. Goalkeeper Ottinger also scored, deflecting 93% of shots, thereby preventing the Jets from catching on to the comeback. It seemed that in the second leg Dallas would be able to give a worthy rebuff to its competitor, but this did not happen. Suddenly, serious problems arose both with the creation and with the realization of moments in the attack, which led to a dry loss (0-4).

Current form

Winnipeg, after a great performance during the regular season, approached the playoffs as one of the main contenders for the Stanley Cup. In the first round, the Jets faced far from the most serious competitor in the face of St. Louis, and it seemed that the team would easily earn a ticket to the quarterfinals, but this did not happen. The fighters showed a very weak game on the road, where they suffered three defeats and were just one step away from relegation. Nevertheless, the home walls helped the team to snatch the hardest victory in extra time (4:3). Most notably, it was possible to equalize the score and put the game into overtime only three seconds before the final whistle.

The series with Dallas also started unsuccessfully, despite the fact that the club played on the home arena. Winnipeg looked better than its competitor and created many more dangerous chances, but still lost by a one-goal margin (3:2). As expected, the Jets still achieved their goal in the return match, and they defeated the Stars dry (4:0). In particular, it is worth noting the forward Ehlers, who scored a double and gave an assist. It is impossible not to single out the goalkeeper Hellebike, who reflected all the shots.
