Today’s Best NHL Bets

Winnipeg Jets ML

(+135, Bet365/Caesars)

Winnipeg Jets -1.5 Alt. Puck Line

(+275, Bet365)

Mikko Rantanen has single-handedly put the Stars within two games of the Western Conference Finals. The Stars/Jets series was destined to be a barn burner, and I don’t necessarily think that’s changing after seeing what has taken place through the first three games. No team really has much of an edge, but nevertheless, I can’t get over the fact that the Stars are such big favorites. Unless Connor Hellebuyck has another questionable performance, I envision this game being at the very minimum a closely contested game. The Jets are at full strength with Scheifele, Ehlers, and Morrissey all back in the lineup and are simply better at both ends of the ice when both teams are at full strength—and that includes if Miro Heiskanen returns for the Stars, which appears to be a possibility. I think the Jets even this series up and will take them for 1 unit at the money line and 1 unit at the alternate puck line of -1.5.
