Dallas Stars - Winnipeg Jets: NHL match betting tip

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.
