The Winnipeg Jets host the New York Rangers at the Canada Life Centre tonight, and back-to-back Vezina Trophy winner Connor Hellebuyck has regained top form since winning gold at the Olympics.
My Rangers vs. Jets predictions and NHL picks expect Hellebuyck to stay sharp against New York tonight.
Rangers vs Jets prediction
Rangers vs Jets best bet: Connor Hellebuyck Over 22.5 saves (-105)
Winnipeg Jets star Connor Hellebuyck has heated up following the Olympic break with a .915 save percentage and 6.35 goals saved above expected across six starts, and the Jets have surrendered 29.5 shots per game during the stretch.
Hellebuyck has stopped 23 or more shots in four of the six, too.
The New York Rangers have also won three of their past four games despite averaging just 25.0 shots per game, so I’m anticipating putting more pucks on net being a priority for the Blueshirts tonight.
