Money Line Pick
WPG Jets Win(+140)

The Florida Panthers are looking to avoid a 3-game losing streak when they host the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday afternoon. While the Panthers are heavy favorites, the Jets have the potential to pull a mild upset in this matchup. The Jets enter this matchup with 49 points in 53 games, while the Panthers have 59 points through 53 games. Despite the 10-point differential between these teams that has them in very different spots in the standings, the goal differentials are essentially the same. Winnipeg’s goal differential sits at minus-10 with the Panthers are at minus-11.

Winnipeg goaltender isn’t have the Vezina-caliber season we are used to seeing, but he is still posting solid numbers. The veteran netminder owns a .902 save percentage to go along with a 2.71 goals-against average in 34 games this season. Hellebuyck figures to get the starting nod in this one, and he has already performed well against Florida this season. He stopped 19-of-20 shots in a 1-0 shootout loss to the Panthers last week on January 22. His offense failed to back him up in that contest, but the Panthers have allowed 9 goals over their last 2 games, so Hellebuyck could be in line for more goal support this time around. With odds of +140, consider a small wager backing the Jets.

Jets vs Panthers prediction: Jets ML (+140)
