The Winnipeg Jets continue their west coast road trip when they visit the San Jose Sharks this afternoon.

Kyle Connor has been on a heater since returning from the Olympics, and I’ll break down why the Winnipeg forward will find the back of the net again in my Jets vs. Sharks predictions and NHL picks for Sunday, March 1.

Jets vs Sharks best bet: Kyle Connor to score (+120)

Kyle Connor was a monster for the Winnipeg Jets in their 5-4 overtime loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Friday, tallying a goal and an assist while logging over 26 minutes of ice time and three shots on net.

The Jets forward has scored in three straight games and four of his last six, and he’ll extend his goal streak this afternoon vs. the San Jose Sharks.

San Jose has allowed 3.51 goals per game — the third-worst mark in the NHL — and the Sharks will have tired legs today, with this being their third game in four days.

Mark Scheifele has recorded at least one assist in five of his last seven games, and the Jets are 5-1 in their last six meetings against the Sharks.

Winnipeg should have the edge in net with Connor Hellebuyck starting, and the Jets will be the fresher team.
