I'll bite at this 5.5, which I am guessing is priced as is because we have a pair of playoff teams jockeying for position. Be that as it may, all the numbers suggest we should see goals here. Vegas road games over the past month and a half are averaging 7.2 goals per game, and seven of the last eight Winnipeg home games have finished with 6+ goals. Connor Hellebuyck is struggling in net lately, allowing 3+ goals in nine of his past 12, Vegas should find offense. Six of the last eight meetings between these two has hit this 5.5 over.

Still can't believe our fade of Vegas on Tuesday in Nashville paid off as the Knights blew a 4-1 third-period lead and lost in OT. Now, I haven't played hockey since on a pond in Michigan decades ago, but I have to think that leaves a bit of a hangover. No. 1 goaltender Adin Hill and top-six defenseman Alex Pietrangelo remain out. Vegas is 2-4 in its past six as a dog. Perhaps some urgency for Winnipeg on a four-game skid, although three were away and then Tuesday's loss in OT at home to excellent Edmonton. The Jets haven't lost B2B home games in months.
