Why The Jets Could Cover The Spread

The Jets were great offensively in the first game, but they were even better on the defensive. For starters, Winnipeg had 11 takeaways on the game. They put a lot of pressure on the Golden Knights and it worked. That pressure took a lot of stress off the goaltender. Las Vegas ended the night with only 17 shots on net. If Winnipeg can have that same kind of defensive pressure in game two, they will take a 2-0 series lead.

Of course, the Jets should keep the same kind of offensive game plan. Tuesday night was just the ninth time all year that the Golden Knights gave up five goals. It was the second time the Jets have scored that many against Las Vegas. Winnipeg has figured out a way to score goals against the Golden Knights and they need to come out with that same kind of fire power in game two.

Why The Golden Knights Could Cover The Spread

The Golden Knights will come into this game with confidence despite dropping game one. During the regular season, Las Vegas won all three games. In two of those games, the Jets were held below three goals. They may have struggled in the first game, but do not expect them to have that kind of game again.

One bright spot for the Golden Knights is their ability to play physical. In game one, Las Vegas laid down 65 hits. Playoff hockey is going to be physical, but the Golden Knights took that to another level. Las Vegas needs to find a way to play with that same pysicality, but also have a good attacking game plan. If they can do that, Las Vegas will tie up this series.

Final Jets-Golden Knights Prediction & Pick

In four games against Las Vegas this season, the Jets have covered +1.5 three times. They always play the Golden Knights tough and expect that same kind of game Thursday night. Winnipeg may not win this game, but they will keep it close enought to cover the spread.

Final Jets-Golden Knights Prediction & Pick: Jets +1.5 (-196), Over 5.5 (-122)
