Blues vs Jets prediction

Blues vs Jets best bet: Jets moneyline (-120)

We’re landing a soft price on the Winnipeg Jets, with them playing the second leg of a back-to-back set and for the third time in four nights.

Still, the St. Louis Blues aren’t a good hockey team and sport a 7-13-3 road record while allowing the third-most goals per game (3.74) and eighth-most expected goals per 60 minutes at 5-on-5.

The Jets have also won four of their past six while scoring 3.83 goals per game and generating the seventh-most xGF per 60 at 5-on-5. 

Eric Comrie should have a solid start in net. He posted a rock-solid .914 save percentage and 2.39 GAA in backup duty last season and stopped 23 of 24 shots in a 5-1 home win over the Kings last time out.

The Blues have also scored the fewest goals per game (2.43) in the NHL.

He loves to lean on his rolodex of idioms to offset his inner nerd. When it comes to wagering, he throws down on anything that catches his eye at bet365, Betway and BetVictor. He also keeps a close eye on CoolBet because the polar bear brand often has outlier NHL and NFL moneyline prices.

If his decade-plus teaching run taught him anything about sports betting, it’s to stay the course and use the summer – or offseason – to refresh and prepare to be better in the year to come.
